I am selling a fresh brand new build Mopar 426 Hemi.
This is NOT a crate engine it is a custom build NEW engine built by legendary Hemi Guru Jim Hale.
This started as a new bare 426 Hemi unmachined block.
This is a correct appearing Mopar “M” block and is NOT a World Block!
These blocks were sold unmachined to racers back in 90-92.
They were only partially machined with unfinished bores and no lifter holes.
Jim machined all lifter bores and then they were all bronze bushed. All bores were custom finished. Line bore was finalized and all deck surfaced squared.
This is the super meticulous custom machine work that is never done with a generic “crate” engine.
All internals are new, block brand new, brand new steel 8 bolt Hemi crank, new h beam rods, new pistons, new Edelbrock heads with custom valve job, new valve springs, new Comp Cams true solid lifter cam with REAL NOS Mopar lifters, rebuild stock stock rocker arms.
Everything is standard bore, standard crank, etc.
The carburetors are brand new 750 Edelbrock units that have been custom jetted to match the intake and cam combination.
The intake is a 55 year old vintage Edelbrock Rat Roadster that has been modified by Jim to make a flatter torque curve.
There is only dyno time and the engine made 505 hp and 489 torque and had a lot more if you wanted to turn it up higher.
The block and tin were painted in epoxy sealer then ppg Hemi orange base clear.
It was balanced using a thin harmonic balancer to you can use the cheaper wedge pulleys.
The price is 32,500 and I am located in Van Buren, Arkansas.
