Seen I believe a 1933 Dodge coupe with a 426 Hemi at a Mopar 'n Motion/ NeHOA meet in around 2017 in Bristol CT. Sorry no pictures it was a tight fit. The Mopars 'n Motion website had pictures of the meets but found it hard to navigate. Oh it was full fendered.

All requires lots of custom parts channel, motor mounts and firewall Redo. You can do it!

Look for a Gen I Hemi, with a Blower. That's where it started !!!

I sold a 57 392 hemi with a blower setup years ago. All it needed was a cam, bearings and rings, and machine work. It had brand new Ross forged blower pistons! I was of on other tangents and lost interest in putting it together. Wish I hadn't done that now!
