All Thanks for the replies, it makes sense the motorhome would need the best stuff with a little 318 pullin' a loaf around....... Anyone got...
Hey all What's the deal with a "motorhome" small block Mopar waterpump and using one in a rod? Years ago a guy I was talking to wanted me to keep...

I think Ms. Hip would not agree..........:p

Small block Mopar.......273 or 318 from 1964 thru 1969.......or so, Mopar used up parts until they ran out their last year in the next model year...
Since "unloaded" has the word "loaded" in it I consider that close enough! Years ago a buddy and I un-loaded a 350 sbc long block out of my 66...
Wasn't the Ecotec first used in the Saturns? Or was it the Ur-anus? Salvage yards are full of them, both single and dual overhead cams.......
