    Actually, the 392 is also an early Hemi based pretty much on the same block as the 331/354. The major difference is that the 392 has a taller deck height to accommodate the longer stroke. An interesting feature is that the 331/354/392 manifolds interchange. Instead of making different intake manifolds to make up for the increased width they made the 392 heads wider!

    The 426 Hemi is based on Chryslers later Raised Block (RB) design (the same basic design used for the 413/426 wedge and 440).

    A family crisis forced me to sell my 37 Dodge PU Hemi project today. As the trucks are actually pretty close in design if you do find a HEMI and run into questions just post here.
