Check the out side of the block on both sides for water jacket cracks around the center freeze plugs I've had at least 5 Chrysler Hemi's with...
Thought you might like to see a friends 1948 Ford Tour Wagon, originally only around 100 built by Boyertown Bodyworks in PA. It still has the...
I would say no on the 413/440, I finally had to replace my original harmonic balancer last year and bought one from Hot Heads, it's a modified SFI...

Saw both of these at Louisville NAT's last week, both 39's, Nash and Hudson big difference, both neat! Grab that Nash!
Yes on the D/S, but as the others pointed out on most truck/motor home applications the slip yoke is on the second D/S just after the hangar...
I've removed the screw posts from Hemi valve covers several times, you have to be careful. These posts are spot welded, you can carefully drill...

If you were putting the truck trans in a street rod or truck you would have more clearance, I've done some swapping around with these...

2-241's, 1-276, 4-291's, 4-331's, 3-354's (1 of which is in my 41 Plymouth), and 2-392's. There's always room for one more!
How are the buttons laid out? If anyone ever took the cover off of the push button control and dropped the buttons it is possible to get them...
OOPS!! I forgot the picture, sorry.
Another fast way to see the differnce is to look at the intake manifold (as long as it's an original) the 392's have the same height exhaust cross...
I joined the NSRA at Memphis in 1980, about two years ago I was finally able to become a lifetime member, the same year they started screwing...
