FOR SALE 1963 426 MAX WEDGE Engine

[Jerley87]

Up for sale is a complete 1963 426 MAX WEDGE CROSSRAM engine minus air cleaners and oil pan. Exhaust manifolds and crossram intake are originals (NOT REPRODUCTIONS). Block has the AAQA stamp and casting number of 2406730. 1963 date. Never bored and still has the standard cast pistions. Original Carter 3447 carbs have C3 as date code (March 63). Was going to use this engine in a 65 Coronet pro-street project but changed my mind and having a HEMI built instead. These are getting harder and harder to find especially if you are needing properly date coded stuff. If you want any additional pictures or information, please message me. Thank you for looking! Asking $12,000 OBO. Pick-up only. Located in Windber, PA

do you have a picture of the id pad on the block? casting no.s on rods? l2266f on pistons is not max wedge, I'm not knocking you, just think you're ad is misleading, dist in the block is a street wedge piece also. please don't think Ill of me, but I've seen too many max engines to notice things. the top end pieces look very correct.

 

[Jerley87]

Sorry, I myself am no where near a Mopar expert. I've just been trying to sell some stuff for my uncle because I'm better on a computer than him! Lol. Those are the pistons he got with the engine. He bought it just the way it is now. Here i

s a picture of the top stamp pad. Best one I could get. Hope this helps.

[silversedan]

[silversedan]

So there you have it. The 413 Max Wedge was simply the 413 Max Wedge. The 426 Max Wedges are the true Stages I, II and III. Now you know the correct way to sound like you know what you are talking about. I'll bet there a few of you out there that just can't wait to correct someone out there when they call the 413 a Stage I. I know because I was waiting like a lion waiting to pounce on the first guy that screwed up in front of me. How sweet that was. Maybe later I will get a chance to get into the nuts and bolts of the details for these separate "stage" packages when I have a lot more time

[63max wedge]

this is a OEM max wedge block. This may help you with the right notching of the block look at the dowel pin

 

[63max wedge]

this is a low mile block 4.800 miles In the next two weeks I will be doweling my 1962 413 T block in the mill with a end. The block will look 100% Max wedge for a 62 dart clone.

 

[silversedan]

the one I'm rebuilding is std bore, but not straight anymore , waiting on some oversized pistons to show up.
