Re: IML: 413 vs 440 in a 64 Crown



I have no idea when the 440 is from (I believe the pad that has the stamping is under the AC compressor, and I haven't bothered removing it to find out).

I also have no good reason to do the switch, other than I can get a supposedly good 413 for little more than shipping, and my 440 has been basically unused for the past 7+ years, and will probably need a bit of work to get it back into working order (it used to run OK, I drove it from Port Orchard Washington to Nampa ID about 5 years ago without any problems, however it has only been started sporadically since, and not at all in the past 2.5 years). Since I will potentially need to do work to the engine anyway, I figure if I had a 413 I could get it rebuilt, then drop it in and have a 440 to do something else with (not that I have anything else to do with it, but I imagine if I had it I could find something to do with it).

There is no difference in external dimensions between a 413 and a 440.  =
If
the guy who installed the 440 used all the 413 manifolds, oil pan,
accessories, brackets, etc. then your swap back to a 413 will be a =
breeze.

If, OTOH, the 440 was installed used all the manifolds, etc. from the =
440
and it was a much later engine then you will have some heartburn.

Why bother removing the 440 to put in a 413?  The engines look identical
from the outside.  Is the 440 shot and you'd rather have a 413 under the
hood?  Is the 440 a late production, low compression engine?
