440's general information

[lordofrc]

I have just got a 440 block. It is out of a RV. I read that these blocks are a thinner casting and cannot hold as much horsepower as a pre-1973 block. Another source informed me that the RV blocks are heavier and can support more horsepower. What is the truth of the matter?
