- This the fifth video in a series of how to build a Big Block Mopar Engine. Using the steps in this series, you can build a big block Mopar at home. The engine being built is a 1970 RB 413 engine from a motorhome. I will be converting this engine into a nice street cruiser for a 74' model Dodge D100, that makes great torque and is very streetable. @ScottsSpeedShop will hopefully follow along with me on this build! Is this the most overlooked Big Block mopar engine?
Cam installed and front cover installed today.

Great job 👍 guys I appreciate all your support and Tips
Thanks Danny. I am doing a 400 build now. Check it out if you can. I will have it dynoed after the first of the year. That’ll be my first time
Time to get some Taco’s now that you’ve got the cam & timing chain in it!
Winner winner, taco dinner?
Yet another very good video my brother.
Much appreciated! it fired right up today! got awesome video!
In the home stretch now!! It’s good to watch a video that realizes there is more than one way to skin a cat!!
Thanks brother! Check your messenger!
Nicely done joe! This build is coming together perfectly!
Thanks Duddie!
That was a good video Joe! I like the real time of what we do at home.
I’m getting ready to change the hydraulic flat tappet cam in the 500 stroker 6 barrel 👍🏻
Thanks again, I enjoyed it.
Thanks Jack! Good luck with your build
still a sweet 413 can't wait to may 1st live! look a lot like a torrington bearing on the gear very similar.
You and me both!It started up great today!!!! Ill send video
Engine oil on the crank Bolt, my uncle taught me that in the early 90s. You could say he was old school.
It works for me. I also try to screw it all the way in by hand, before giving it the tighten up.
I'm going to dip my timing chain in butterscotch too. Great build, Joe!
😂 I never saw it until you said it
yep I only use blue lock tite on the threads of the cam bolt and the balancer after I cleaned the threads of dirt and oil . blue locks it just enough to keep it from backing off even after torqued . ive heard of cam bolt backing off and or the crank shaft bolt and the balancer go flying off like a missile ? But if you have had no issues then it's all good 😎👍
I’ve never had a bolt back out on a Mopar. Even using the occasional Ugga dugga method. I’ve never used locktite in this situation. It’d take some serious harmonics to back out a crank bolt.
I actually had the crank bolt come loose on the Turbo Stealth, about 5k miles after the engine build. Damper came off too, but luckilly no damage except nicks on it, and a torn belt. It went back on with LocTite!! Thats about the only fastener back-off ive ever had...and I guess technically its not a Mopar so...🤔🤣
Thanks WnT. Everything we encounter with these engines seems to be a lesson or a blessing.
Very Nice !! That motor's going to be sweet !! Like the cam choice !
Thanks Tim. Hope it runs like a Lunatic!
Looking forward to hearing that beast run.
Thanks brother! It fired right up! Ran smoother than my 360. It's hard to beat a big block.
Lookin great Joe ,look foreward to hearing it run!!
Thanks Bill!
Mopar engineers wanted that oil slinger on there so do it Joe.
I love it. My dad drilled that it had to be there when he taught me how to do this, on my first build with him..18 years ago 😅
Torrington bearing ? Should have soaked it in oil to penetrate the rollers
It fired right up to 2,500 rpm, after it was fully primed. I’ll soak it next time, but it sure did well 👍🏼
Nice in depth videos Joe! What heads are going on this engine? even with closed chambers,... those dish pistons are like a roll of wet toilet paper... good for nuthin
Thanks brother. This one gets some shaved 452’s that were well ported. The owner mentioned is trying it on the chassis dyno someday. It will be a huge difference in his 75 d100 truck over the clapped out 318 it had. Here’s an awesome thread that I always look back over. www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php?topic=104749.0
What You have there for a 413 block...it is the heavy external webbing block typical for the industrial, heavy truck, motorhome block....have a look please at the thicknes of the cylinder walls.... ( finger in coolant opening and cylinder deck side.... so to have a feel for the thickcness ) the blocks with the figure 8 shape water passage opening are cast with the 440 tooling but have the 413 bore..... thick cyli der walls!!!
Would be interesting to know, if Yours is also one of that kind
I now have 3 more to sonic check. They’re all bare castings
@@JustMoparJoe Detroit Gold that is for sure!!! I got 2 of them in bare casting condition.... I am from Germany.... Autobahn is still a wild place on some stretches.... here near Frankfurt ( remember Rhein-Main- Air Base?) That is for instance.... having fun with Your vids. Maybe You do a video on these special blocks? ... a short one? One seller of my NOS 413 late casting block told me...he raced these in mopar class racing... the stock eliminator crowd would love these blocks for their ruggedness.... I can not tell.... I am way off from the USA racing scene here in the german boonies..... could be Your 70 casting 413 cold weather block is not based on the 440 pattern.... but the later ones ( 76-78) sure are.... would be nice from You to shed some light on it....cheers and MoPar to ya....Jens
Hi Joe, I have never done this before so your video is extremely helpful, today I have to take off the timing cover off of my new 383 I just purchased. It’s a fresh build, however I had to take the balance her off in order to paint the block the proper Chrysler turquoise for my 65. After I did that I had a few issues that I have since remedied ( I galled the 1 st thread on crank with puller but easily fixed that with a 3/4 -16 tap) I noticed that when they installed the balancer they folded over the lips seal. So today I have to take the timing chain cover off, replace the lip seal and put back together. Do I have to take the oil pan off in order to seal everything back up correctly? And my second question is I bought the Ultra black instead of the Ultra gray sealant is that OK to use on timing cover? Thanks any info would be much appreciated from you.
Thanks for reaching out! You can leave the pan on. Many front cover kits come with a small front gasket for sealing the oil pan back to the front cover, or if you’re careful, you can reuse the oil pan gaskets. Ultra black is good. Be sure to clean all surfaces with brake or carb cleaner before applying. And don’t over torque. It’s often better to snug them up with sealant on both sides, then come back a few hours later and fully tighten. Good luck!
@@JustMoparJoe awesome! Thanks again for reply!!👍
I didn’t see you put the gasket at the bottom of the timing chain cover or did you just put silicone on it.looks like a gap, just wondering
The gasket is part of the oil pan gasket. The timing cover provides the front two holes for the pan to bolt to. This pan actually got two gaskets, as they sandwich the windage tray. No leaks.
How come you used permetex on the timing cover gasket rather than the yellow dog?
Yellow dog would be fine, but it glues the gasket to both surfaces and makes it a super pain to pry the cover off later. The permatex is a softer seal and seems to fill more imperfections. Either are fine, with a dab of rtv in the corners.
What torque converter did u use? I got a Hughes 2425 2500 stall ...
I believe he went with a TCI m, that he bought with the super street fighter transmission. Got this put into the black D100 truck and had a good road test.
What is all in your 50/50 mix assembly Lube
It’s 50 percent oil, and 50 percent Lucas oil stabilizer.
Celtic music?
I’m part Irish, at least in March!
Why the dished pistons? What a waste of time unless you are putting a blower on it.
The owner wanted a budget big block for his 75 d100 truck. It will be night and day difference over the clapped out 318 he had. I love this old thread. www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php?topic=104749.0
@@JustMoparJoe compression isn't everything, flow more than makes up for low compression.
I have a .030 over 413 with egge flat tops with 88cc 452 heads and a .480 lunati cam that went 12.90 with 8.6.1 compression.
@@JustMoparJoe still a waste man. This motor could have so much potential. Might as well put another 318 in it.
Would you like to rebuild my 413?
I can definitely get you on the list! I am building the 508 now for a customer, then a 440,360, slant 6, and another 360. Love the mopars!
@@JustMoparJoe I'm in no big rush so that is fine. Can you send me your number so we can talk.
