Really?? What's the difference if you buy new ceramic headers, aluminum intake, pistons, etc. for a 426 or 392? They both are ALOT. I think the savings comes from the purchase price of the engine. When is the last time you saw a 426 for $2K? You can have a nostalgic 392 putting 425HP for $8K, not a 426.



At least with a 426 hemi, you can find used speed parts for sale here and at the swap meet, ebay, etc. Used aftermarket intakes, sets of new or used pistons for much cheaper than new, etc. Used 392 speed parts just aren't out there.
