Chris - I've been working on a 270 Hemi ('55 Dodge) for the past couple years, going to slam it in an M-37... run out and buy a copy of Tex Smith's "The Complete Chrysler Hemi engine manual". From your photo... is that the hemi with the built in bell housing? 'Cause if it is... you need to read through that book. That's the worst hemi made as far as trying to work on and buy parts for and such. Whichever one you select though - it's gonna' get expensive. After doing this for awhile... I should have just bought a 426 - at least there are aftermarket places that make a lot of parts for that one! These "baby hemi's" are hard finding parts for and everyone seems to want a fortune these days for things like boring and milling and such.
Good luck with your venture though! (Get the book, the best reading you can find before you start!)
