Default New engine job

I know folks are hung up on hemi but why. I had a 340 six pack that ran 12 seconds all day long in my 340 space duster. I have a 2005 V8 manual with 4x4. Why don't folks from in real Mopar mussel. Those 340 and 360 were healthy and madness would be a 383 be even crazy.
Has anyone done a reverse swap 4.7 to old school mussle. And real ram air,there's a guy who shows step by step on you tube nowhere built a fully working ram air on his 4.7 Cherokee grand. And it's ducted out to a mid 2000 mustang good scoop. Real sharp. He does lots of 4.7 magic turning a 4.7 into an h.o engine and major engine and drive line work. His channel is martinbuilt.

I've never had much luck running clams under the hoods of my cars and trucks over the years. Now, I've dropped some muscle under them. I prefer the old big blocks as they have massive torque and are easy to work on. Mopar got away from the big blocks because bores over 4 inches are hard to meet emissions with before fuel injection.
