RE: Building a new engine
I believe the highest you can go is 426 Ci, I believe KRC makes a kit.......but you would obviously have to get the block bored a substantial amount to make it work
They call it hemi-sized or something like that

RE: Building a new engine
Actually the 426 kit only requires a .030" over bore. The main CI adder comes from the longer crank. Hughes Engines also has a kit for the same thing. they also have a nice write up about a motor they built using it. Try and find you a Mopar Performance computer and that will work better than your stock one. Talk to the guys at KRC or John at Souteastperformance. I spent a couple hours talking to John one day about a build I'm doing for my '94. There are options out there....but some are costly. Cheers.

You will have to get a computer friendly cam though, unless you want to switch over to carb. That would be so badass, a second gen with a 440 six pack[sm=badbadbad.gif]
