None of the above. Go late model HEMI they are inexpensive and an easy swap.

C4C has a good idea. There was an article in Car Craft recently about the swap. Special adapter is needed for 727 but other than that it bolts up. Here is a link about it and I'm sure C4C can answer questions also since he has done it.

Yep! The Dart in my avatar is running a Hemi. I did the swap, I'd be happy to help you all I can.

Hemi mated to a 727:


I added a "little spray"

If you were in the NE area, I'd talk to you about that magnum 360 and tranny. I hate having evil thoughts.

Good luck with whatever you decide to go with.
