I hate to ask a stupid question, but I have been watching you guys talk about 
RB, and B Blocks, what the heck does that stand for?? What should I know 
about the Blocks other than the year they were made, small or long block? Am I 
really that stupid??

Don you certainly are not stupid. The B R/B question is a valid one. The 
Chrysler modern V/8's (newer than the mid fifties) basically fall into two 
catagories. The B engine which consists of the following engines. 350, 361, 383, 
400 are all called Low Deck blocks. The R/B engines are as follows 383 (59-60 
only) 413, 426 (wedge only, not Hemi) and 440 engines. There are new motors 
based on the R/B design but they are aftermarket engines. The difference between 
the two motors is the height of the deck. The deck height is the measurement 
from the block where the oil pan bolts on to the top of the block without the 
head bolted on. The stroke of the R/B engine is longer than the B engine. B vs 
R/B or Raised Block. The 440 motor shares just about all the same components 
as the 383 with the exception of stroke, intake, and obviously piston size. 
You can interchange the heads, the oil pan, the oil pump, camshaft, water pump. 
Crankshafts are different. I am sure I have left something out. Someone can 
give you a better description than myself.
