bsoder Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I'm trying to build a "correct" '74 Roadrunner 440 using the AMT 74 GTX and '71 Charger kit..some guys have said the motor is Chry. Red but I believe it should be Chrysler Blue with an orange dual snorkel aircleaner for the 440 4bbl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDean58 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 According to what I just read on allmopar.com http://www.allpar.com/model/roadrunner.html Plymouth dropped the 440 in 74 You can try putting in a 340 or 360 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikelo Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I believe the 440 was dropped by 74, but I also believe the 400 would be the blue (along with the small blocks). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsoder Posted May 29, 2007 Author Share Posted May 29, 2007 Actually the question I really have is the correct engine colors..lets say it's a 73 instead of a 74, that year did have the 440 Roadrunner,although with the 440 it also carried the GTX designation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry P. Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I believe the 440 was dropped by 74, but I also believe the 400 would be the blue (along with the small blocks). In 74 the 440 was optional, but could only be had with an automatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pettyfan43 Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 According to what I just read on allmopar.com http://www.allpar.com/model/roadrunner.html Plymouth dropped the 440 in 74 You can try putting in a 340 or 360 That is WRONG!!!!!!!! The engine code was U in 74 and the 440 was rated at 280 HP. The engine should be a light blue with an ORANGE SINGLE snorkel Air Cleaner.
