Dan,

With the early extended block Hemi, you have 2 choices for transmission. You
can machine off the extended portion of the block, or you can get an adapter
from Wilcap at http://www.wilcap.com/

Any engine parts you need are available at
http://www.earlyhemiengineparts.com/ or http://www.hothemiheads.com/

Hello

I hope you can help me with some information.  I have a 1952 Chrysler New
Yorker engine and transmission.  It is a 331 Hemi engine with the built in
(non removable) Bell Housing.  I am trying to locate parts for both the
engine and transmission, information as to what (331 parts) fit what blocks.
I have found that the 331 heads will fit the 354 block, but I do not know
which years.  Location of good 354 blocks and parts.  If I change to a 354
block it will be easier to update the transmission.  Any information
concerning what transmission ( other than OEM 1952) trans will fit the 331's
bell housing.  Suggestions in general.

I plan to put the engine into a 1950's Dodge Wayfarer that is street able,
dependable and fun to drive.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Dan
