If you want reliable and Hemi you can swap in one of the new Hemi's currently in production (so far, anyway). Not an "era- correct" solution, but an option.

Thanks to everyone for your views. I remember my college roomate had a '68 Coronet R/T with the Hemi, it seemed to have lots of problems and he traded it after a few months for a 440 R/T. But it is obvious it matters what intakes and cams you have on either engine, so thanks for the insights on that too. There is also a case to be made it seems to just upgrade my exisiting 383 2 bbl. I guess I could squeeze a few horses out of it with a 4 bbl. better manifold, and better cam, plus dual exhausts without modfifying it too much. I will think about this, and thanks again for your experience.
