Dr Hemi, I love to see Mopar motors but these are not HAMB friendly vehicles and are very OFF TOPIC....Please read the rules...

 

Here's my built 383 Mopar in my 32 Studebaker President....45,000 miles since last rebuild...absolutely trouble free....made most of the aluminum and stainless under the hood....including with help of a friend the air cleaner top....I love to pop the hood on this car and watch the purists cringe! Joe

Also a pic of a recent redo of the Tommy Sanborn 27 all steel T that his nephew Jeffrey redid...I thought VERY nice and my friend Bill Akin's 468 Big Block with Webers...I drive this car quite often and get continual compliments on the engine compartment...car was finished as it sets 1980...AND the infamous 29 roadster of Bill's with the 4 cam Indy Ford...this one blows their minds!

 

327 in my old sedan.

 

I'm definitely a Chevrolet guy to the core, but there are some fantastic looking "older" engines in this thread, from Flat Head Fords, to Oldsmobile J-2's, to Buick Nail Heads, to the infamous Hemi's of then and now. It's a beautiful thing we all belong to, this hobby of all things horsepower based. Butch/56sedandelivery.
