The 426 hemi that powered the Chrysler Engineering #88 Daytona, DC-93, that Buddy Baker drove to the 200 mph record in 1970

Yes.
That series of photos were taken by Chrysler Photographic in early August 1970.
I believe there are around 18 total. Taken at the main garage, Chelsea Proving Grounds.

Jim Radke was nice enough to get perfect copies of the ones he had and send them to me back in 1998, pretty soon after I found the car behind Don White's race shop in Keokuk, Iowa. Don had modified the car, so they were useful to return it to "200 mph" condition.

That’s where/who these came from.
