Re: 392 Hemi




My father had a 392 in a '64 Polara. Used poly 318 motor brackets if I remember correctly. He did this back in the 60's when parts for both the car and the early hemi were more readily available. Hemi was blown up when he was trying to sell it in the 70's when someone 'test drove' it.

Also do a Google search on the 392 and B Bodies, I think there is more out there.

The crankshaft is longer on the early Hemi engines, I think you will need an adapter / spacer.

Last but not least by a long way check these guys:

I am currently building a 1954 331 and it will be going in a B Body.

I have a chance at a reasonably priced 392 Hemi, and I'm looking for input from anyone here who can help. Does anyone know if it'll bolt right into my '64 Belvedere's K member? I know a 426 will, but I don't know about a 392. Can I use my small block Torqueflite with it? From what I've been able to determine, I may need an adaptor, but otherwise it should work. The transmission is freshly rebuilt, so that's why I would want to keep using it if possible.

I don't remember ever seeing a 392 in a '60s era B body before, but then again, my memory isn't all it used to be cracked up to be.
Thanks in advance for your input.
