It does look good but, I have no idea if it's correct!Fit testing parts on my 65 coronet with a 426 street wedge. Does this look correct on plug wire shields?
Have 2 bags of different ones
Thanks

Sorry I don't know the answer to your question, as Mike says, they look good.
At risk of taking your post off-topic, I do have a couple questions and statement about that vintage antique iron (beautiful, in my mind) you have there;
Is that an original street wedge oil pan?? Got a pic of the bottom?? Do you have a build thread of what you are working on for us to follow?? Did that motor come complete, like original from your 65 Coronet? Of interest to some, your pic clearly shows the two bosses absent from later RB blocks (needed for some installs). They are just above the oil pump on the drivers side. And lastly, see the white markings (factory) on the passenger side.... looks like a kindergardner got loose with a grease pencil... Anybody know what the factory inspector? was doing there.... my '65 383 was the same way, and I know I've seen others. TIA, Lefty71[/QUOTE
The motor block and most of the parts are original to the car. Oil pan has no numbers stamped in the pan which is correct to the car. Not sure on block markings? Bosses are there just not in the picture. I guess I'll flip over to the restoration forum
on my 64 block, I do not have those bosses you asked about. Never saw those before.
I am not aware of that shield for a 426-S
I have only seen them on the front.While everyone is here. I know there is the insulation pad that goes under the intake. Are these shields installed on the front and back of the intake of my 65 426 street wedge?

I’m interested in what you find. In particular there are two numbers claimed to be used for both 413s and 426s. I’ve seen evidence of one but not the other.1962Polara...My 1964 Dodge 440 426 Street Wedge 4 speed's block number is 2406730-1 the same number on all three of my 426 Max Wedge blocks. However is does have the 3/8 oil pickup and not the 1/2 and is not notched for the valve reliefs.
I have several 426 Street Wedge blocks in my collection of motors and I will check the casting number on them and get back to you with what I find.
Jim I've seen that plug boot shield on 440's but not 426-S...Someone else might chime in with correct answer?
