Mine is a MB400 (as the vin is F44CD6V1xxxx) and the Chilton I bought to help with repairs is for full sized vans, but doesn't include MB400.
Is there a repair manual, generic like the Chilton, available?? Or is it close enough? (Chilton's #20420, Chrysler Full-Size Vans, 1967-88 repair manual)...

The F44 is the model and body type.
Here is what it breaks down to:
F4 = MB400 - model number
4 = MB4 Hi Line Cab - body style

MH with a Dodge title says 1981 dodge sportman. RV was made by Mobile Traveler with a MH # F44CD9V726590 - what does that tell me. The engine is a 440.

Working backwards from the rightmost character:
726590 = Sequential serial number
V = Warren assembly plant
9 = 1979 chassis model year
D = 440-1 series engine
C = 10,001 - 14,000 pound GVW class
F44 = Unknown (my books don't show those letters/numbers but those are usually the model and body type.)

That's good you know what engine you have, there are many parts interchangeable between the B and RB engines you have the B the RB stands for Raised block {added stroke}. Tbe water pump and housing, timng cover, oil pan and pump, heads and valve train {execpt pushrods} all interchange. the intake and valley tray are smaller on the 400.
I build a 400 engine for my 66 coronet a few years back using the 383 rods and crank since I had them {steel crank and the rods are a little lighter}. This is one of the best engines I have ever built, the 400 has the same stroke as the 383 the extra cubic inches come from the larger bore. the pistons in a STD 400 are larger than in a 440. It's a sweet combination.
