- The Dyno 406 is finally coming out of retirement. If you will recall, it was built, Dyno tested, drag raced, then swapped out for the 512 low deck platform, last year before the #nonamenationals . However, I had to rob my top end components to finish the 512 and camouflage the engine back in the car as it was a surprise for the event.
With the upcoming tailgate throwdown with @StreetCarChronicles @SquarebodyStuff @BigBlock402 @UnityMotorSportsGarage
I’ve got to get this engine completed and in the “Lunch Break” Dodge D100 truck! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Getting exciting! Get your kicks with the 406 !!!!
Should be a blast!
JustMoparJoe.. Cool video. Brings back so many memories.
Thanks brother
Nice job Joe...🔧🔧🔧👍🇺🇲
Thanks brother!
Lunch Break!!
🍟
One step closer!
Happy Independence Day everyone!
Same to you and yours!
Another great video Joe, keep 'em coming! Wish I had remembered... just ordered some Harland Sharps for my build but no mention of Joe... oh well. Love the truck!
That D100 is going to be happy, happy, happy!😊 Nice demonstration Joe!
@@mikestackhouse9001 thanks Mike!
Ready to rock and roll
So close! Thanks brother
That’s going to be one bad dude! I love the idea of the stock stroke 400 in a 72’ model Mopar-a not only possible but common combination for that year 👏👏👏. Happy 4th to you and the family Joe! 🦅🇺🇸🎆😊
Can't wait! Happy 4th and good weekend to you and yours!
Those rockers look like jewelry on a pimp. Looking good Joe.
Thanks Jonny Mopar! Should make a fun truck!
@@JustMoparJoe Heck yeah, I love those tin Grilles.
*Professor Seeman* nods his approval, then with a wave of his hand blesses the engine....

😂 he saw that oil run down the side. He’s gonna make me cut up a set of old valve covers soon
Goals!
Looking forward to making some smoke with it!
HAPPY 4TH JOE, my friends told me in 1979 that putting 440 heads on my 73 charger 400 was a bad idea, they were wrong, solid build there buddy
Thanks Dizzy! A good head can always bring up the power! Happy 4th
Holy sh** I completely forgot about the headers thing until now. I tried to look into a set back when you first showed them and couldn't find anything on them. Now that you are throwing them in this pickup I am keen to see how they turn out, especially the drop down height. B/RB headers are a total shot in the dark anymore and iirc you said these worked like a charm even with the stubby starters.
Happy 4th brochacho!
@@cjm5002 thanks! They are back in stock on eBay finally
Nice 👍 👍 👍 👍
Thank you 👍
Bad ass even his truck is fast. The best thing about Firecore distributor is that easy recurve adjustment. Timing is key.
Lol at people that lock there timing.
Thanks brother. It’s gonna be a fun one!
The engine is looking great, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones
Thanks Donald! Same to you!
Excellent work Joe
Thanks buddy! Happy 4th!
Nice work Joe.
Thanks for sharing. 👍 🇺🇸
Thanks Ed! The 406 rides again soon!
Coming together.
Absolutely! Thanks John
That will be a fun little truck!
Absolutely! Getting close to lift off!
You're missing the little bars on the valley pan!😂 Good stuff Sir!
@@BigMikesHooptyBarn 😂
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Thanks Lars! Happy 4th
Man I learn so much from your videos, thank you!
Glad to help!
Hope you had a Happy 4th. Another good show.
Thanks, you too!
It's all coming together, waiting to hear her run. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Jeff!
Very nice to set your roller cam solid valve lash!
Thanks 👍 should be a runner soon
Just another day in the office for Joe . Looking forward to more on your blue truck .
Thanks brother!
Your the Man Joe, excellent work as Always.
I appreciate that! Thanks for the support!
Looking forward to seeing it perform!👍
You and me both! Should be a blast
The shade of blue on that truck is beautiful. And you made an oil mess.
@@rickseeman5679 they’re both cleaning up slowly! I’m gonna make it!
Well done Joe…
Thanks brother!
Hey Joe, just wanted to say hi and let you know I really enjoy all you do! I was searching TH-cam for MOPAR stuff and came across your channel and was instantly hooked. I used to have a '68 Fastback and now have a '73 Swinger that Ive been building for.....quite a while (Mopoor) and also have a '84 D100 with a slant and 4 speed. Expensive and seems even more so these days. You mentioned in your video about a discount on Harland Sharp rockers - the first engine I ever "built" was a 383 that in a '66 Belvedere that I had for 20 years that I installed HS rockers (they were $$ back then) and they performed excellent. Well, a hundred years later & I'm trying to build another so any discount on parts is appreciated. All that being said, what is the process for receiving the discount you mentioned? Thank you and also for your videos and info - great job! I often feel like I've forgotten so much but watching your videos renews my drive and confidence...... and I thoroughly enjoy your bodywork stuff too. Thank you and GOD bless

I'm wondering where you came up with zero lash with solid lifters albeit there on a hydraulic lifter cam. I have a 400 with comp cams 501 lift cam and comp cams standard hydraulic lifters set at .020 preload, yes, they clatter, and comp cams says if I set them at .040 preload, they will be quiet, but quite frankly I prefer a little extra clearance in my valve train. I also run a 750 Carburetor Shop Holley that is supposed to flow 800 cfm, but if I had your money, it would be a 1000 cfm carb. With either set of cast iron high flow exhaust manifolds, 2 1/4 outlet or 2 1/2 outlet it overheats, but with truck headers it struggles to make thermostat temp, go figure. Can't wait to see your truck at the track, hurry up will ya! LOL

@@JustMoparJoe Still makes no sense to me, zero lash, why? Most valve lash setting change from cold to hot, the street hemi was .028 intake and .032 exhaust cold, but hot they were both .030, so how can the exhaust and intake both be set the same cold? They didn't say where they got the info from for setting them that way, can't say that their wrong because I don't know, but I will say it counter dicks everything I've ever read on valve lash. I don't think there is much difference in the weight of flat tappet lifters between solids and hydraulics to make much difference.
@@JustMoparJoe Just checked out a Unity Moter Sports youtube video on solid roller cams and they showed the spec sheet, .022 intake and .022 exhaust, now that makes sense to me.
@@stephenwest798 think of it like this. I’m using a hydraulic roller cam. If I had used hydraulic roller lifters, they would have 0 lash and the lifter would be preloaded inside. They’re designed for the roller to not lose contact with the lobe. When I added a solid roller lifter, the cam profile didn’t change. It still wants the roller in contact with the lobe. I’m going to zero lash Cold. When it all warms up, it’ll grow to .002-.004. If I had used a feeler Gaige, it would have been .002. So even at the end of this video, I could still technically slide a .002 feeler between that roller and the valve tip.
@@JustMoparJoe OK, I would still for my own satisfaction check them warmed up as the exhaust generally calls for a tighter clearance hot and the intake a looser clearance. That said the hydraulics in my 400 clatter because of the .020 preload which I could eliminate by going to .040 preload and the comp cam high techs in my 340 clatter up 3000 rpm when they pump up, .030 preload, and it's been running for 34 years and if their clattering, I don't think they are staying in contact with the cam lobe albeit their flat tappet. I am not saying you're wrong, I just have a hard time getting comfortable with that tight a clearance on solid lifters regardless of the cam profile and would certainly check them hot to leave nothing to chance, but that's just me.
That's sweet combo, was wondering how using those solid rollers with a hydraulic cam would work, seems like it worked pretty well for you, how long before you have to readjust the valve lash when you use that setup? And would offset rockers help with pushrod clearance? And do the solid rollers make more power than the hydraulic rollers when using a hydraulic roller cam?…
I was relashing them every other time at the track, and I would barely have any movement or change. I would imagine they would be the same as the old solid lifter recommendations of the 60’s cars. Engine masters showed 7-10 hp increase on the dyno with them. Offset rockers would only help if the ports were larger and needed to offset for side clearance.
Nice! Can't wait to see how those header fit in the truck. Also, should I go with a high volume oil pump for my 440 since I have an 8 quart oil pan? Or would a stock pump work just as well?
I oftentimes go with the application for oil pump selection. The high volume is usually a good thing if it’s mostly raced. If it’s a street strip mix and lives under 6,000 rpm, then the standard oil pump will work. You might want to add the high pressure spring to your standard pump if you’d like more pressure. Hope that helps!
@@JustMoparJoe Thanks for the info! I'm building a 440 for my 84 d100. It will have a forged bottom end(Wisco piston,scat rods, and stock forged crank). I'm also using Edelbrock E-street heads with 440source 1.6 rockers. The cam is a lunati Voodoo hydraulic flat tappet .533/.552 242/252@.050 or .569/.589 with the 1.6 rocker ratio. I wanted to go with a hydraulic roller, but the cam I have was already broken in and it was cheap.
Motor Joe would like a XL shirt to help show promote your channel John thanks.

Joe, my lash is supposed to be .018 cold on intake & exhaust. Does doing the adjustment your way with just a hint of pushrod rotation give enough clearance, or should I play the feeler gauge game?
It sounds like yours are a traditional solid roller or solid flat tappet cam. This one is Unique to those because it’s a hydraulic roller cam with solid roller lifters. This cam has a different lobe design, that’s supposed to have a hydraulic roller lifter on it. Remember hydraulic lifters get preloaded, and they are made to never lose contact with the lobe. In my situation, I’m trying to reproduce that, but not so much that the valves hang open at any point.
I guess I didn’t see it are there any oiling mods needed using the solid lifters on the hydraulic roller cam?
No sir. Easy drop in and go! I do have a high volume pump
Alright! Got Garlic Bologna? Jewish Rye bread?
Haha! Leftover hotdogs from the 4th
@@JustMoparJoe that'll do 😉
What weight oil do you use?
This engine has a little tighter bearing clearances, so I’m running 5w30.
Here’s my discount link for ams oil. www.amsoil.com/?zo=30970399
@@JustMoparJoe Really, that's interesting and you still have decent oil pressure when it's hot? Is your main bearing clearance still around .002? I run 20-50 down hear in florida in my 512 73 Challenger now I'm wondering if that's to thick, any thoughts?
@@ws2664 I was right at .002 with this engine. Oil pressure is great all the time. In my 512, I went with 15w40 to get more pressure. They say thinner oil will allow for more horsepower.
@@JustMoparJoe I guess I'm going to change my old school ways and go with this on my next oil change. Thanks Joe, for your input, I really appreciate it.
Nice video but that’s still not gonna be enough motor for the Throwdown. 😉🫣😁😁
I might have to screenshot you on this one 🫡
