Hey what do u think of this? Once i get some money and a beater car, i want to swap out my 318 for a memi i was thinking of a 426, but what do u think? I know there will be enough modding to keep me busy fo awhile, but i wasn't going to do this untill my tranny or engine went to hell.

sounds like you havent checked out how much a 426 cost. and 392 s are even more. they are VERYVERYexpensive. it is a major deal to do a 426 hemi in any frame that didnt come with one. just check with someone that builds race cars, they can give you theinfo youneed.
thats why i said i got to save up money, ha ha, i want a hemi dakota, i know it would be bad ass thats why i want to do it, even if i could get a slightly used hemi and a 727 tranny would be great.

Id get a truck with a 45re first, that way the engine will bolt up, or check out the bolt patterns. But 360 crates are pretty good and it would be easy to swap a 5.9 in.

price for 426 hemi $16,300 without carb ignition and headers but thats ok i want that all custom anyways
price for used 727 tranny $50
the tranny has to built up for the hemi though
i have a friend who works at dodge country of appleton yay for me
this mod will take a while
