It would have to be a 383 or 440 . Both were power houses and are still available , the 426 is just to hard to find and expensive.

Yeah ... you're right. IIRC, all the original Hemi's were bought up (and subsequently smoked) by the 1/4 milers of the era.

Pretty sure you can still get a crate motor though ... if you want to spend the $$$ ... I mean $$$$$$$$$!

Yup ... just looked here: http://www.mopartsracing.com/parts/blocks.html

$15,000 for a 610hp 528ci Hemi ... actually a bargain compared to the 426ci for only $2000 less.

i tell ya what i do like there....

360 Magnum-390 HP 360 V8 crate motor 4349.00

thats a decent price for that. 390hp/410tq. it could give my ram a nice needed boost of power. 345 tq is fun, but just not nearly enough. oh well, i think my dumb self is gonna get a set of heads next tax return.
