How much did you snag them for on the pair? Nice score though.

Fantastic gesture, wanting to reunite these Hemi engines with the current owners. If those owners are out there, I'm sure they'll pay a handsome price. Thanks for posting.
Eugene, I posted this on Moparts and got the response below:
0B 227011
From a Hemi Cuda, could be a hard top or convertible.
0G 161336
From a Charger - XS29R0G161336 - Dark tan metallic in color with an automatic transmission.

I ran them through The 1970 Hamtramck Registry - Found Section - Custom VIN Search (1960 - 1969) first then Mopar VIN Database
great sites but like every other site only as good as what’s been entered..
Did see this though…

I'm surprised that the Charger owner is not sure if he wants the motor at this time. Finding numbers matching engines (especially Hemi engines) to one's car is invaluable. If they ever resell the car, the matching numbers engine will really increase the value of the car. To each their own, I guess.
Like your suppose to hold the engine until he's ready?? Definitely not a wise decision of course he may not have the cash or a spouse that doesn't get it.

Well seeing we don't know the price, since this isn't a for sale thread, hard to say why he's "not sure".

My thoughts exactly...
Yep he might not be able to afford it.

Prior owner of my former Hemi GTX swapped two gen 2 Hemi short blocks to get the car’s original engine back. Not everyone is in a position to do such a deal.
The price was 28k hardly ransom money …. He had a great running motor that he was happy with and he is in his 70’s
$28k isn't a bad price.
Not at all for your numbers matching Hemi

I think if you're 70 and driving your Hemi Charger you could care less whether it had the matching #'s block or not. I see his point, he owns the car because he loves it not for what it's worth. For those of us looking on though we think that would be great to match it up.

Probably stating the obvious, but get that man's address and start sending Christmas cards
