I own a 1969 Dodge D100 its 2wd. I'm building a high horsepower street truck. Mainly car show, and a couple passes down a drag strip. I need help in finding a parts supplier for this year truck. Its 40 years old, and its not a popular truck to build for drag. I can't seem to find anything other than replacement parts.

I'm looking to put a Mopar 440 V8 with a suitable trans, performance drive shaft, and rear axel. Any suggestions on the type of rear axel and driveshaft.   Or just any idea on a good site for parts, and info.

find a old motor home. easiest way to find the engine and trans. any good drive shaft shop should be able to build you a good drive shaft.

Does the motorhome have to have a dodge motor, or will any motor be able to fit in it.

It probly has a dana 60 in the back already so your good in the axle area.For the trans I'd go 727.For the engine look for a 70s b-body or gigger.Not a roader runner but new york,fifth ave...big cars.They almost all have 400s or 440s in them with a 360 thrown in here and there.
Just if you cant get a moter I know where theres a 70s 360 for sale.
