  2. That's a block and TWO heads, two MoPar Hemi heads.

    You MUST be young to ask "what is" about a Hemi...

    While not conclusive, the 4 bolt outlet flange on the exhaust manifolds laying in the lifter valley suggest it's either a Chrysler based Dodge Truck 331/354 or Chrysler Industrial 331/354. 392's were never used in either application.

    I don't know Hemi's but my first impression was the head needs to turn 180 degrees.

    With the exhaust manifold sticking up to the inside I'd believe you are 100% correct. Looks like someone stuck it back together to move it rather rapidly after having the right head off.
     
  7. I think it's the rare Ardun/flathead Caddy mod.

  8. If all of the parts pictured there are from the same engine, it is a 331/354 Chrysler out of a Dodge truck.

    It's for sale and they say its a 58 Chrysler 354. I have only seen 354 heads with water outlets on them. And the block looks to be 54 and earlier 331.

    Nope I'm 58 years young. Never saw a 354 Chrysler Head like that.

    After more googling with a id number I came to the conclusion as you said its a Dodge 354 truck engine.
