 | The 440 Six Pack/6-BBL V-8 offered by Mopar was rated at 390 horsepower and 490 lb-ft of torque. Save the Hemi, the 440 Six Pack would have been the dominant V-8 of the classic muscle car era. It was a quicker accelerating engine than the Ford 429 Cobra Jet and the GM 454 and 455. One of the key factors is fuel consumption, and the 440 Six Pack's 3x2 carburetor setup provided a great deal of that. The 440 Six Pack/6-BBL had an aluminum Edelbrock intake manifold, moly piston rings, and Hemi valve springs. |
This example made $162k at Mecum. |  |
