There sure has been a lot of these old Hemi's showing up for sale recently. I may have to get back in the game purchasing them. Your estimate for them is around the ball park. 392 bring in the most money. here is a great place for information and pricing. https://www.hothemiheads.com/Australia is where all mine where sold, the old hemi's are supper hot down under. If you get them what are your plans?

Not sure on value, but when I think of a 392 Hemi, I first thought of a fuel car ... ala Swamp Rat ...or the Bounty Hunter... someone building a nostalgia dragster would need a 392 between the rails.

the older i get, the less it seems i'm going to build one of the two 392's i have sitting on the shelf. both came from imperials, with one engine having the imperial script valve covers, which i had running around 1980 or so. i have had both of these engines since the very early 70's, and had plans to install one in my humpback panel truck. sadly, life has taken over, and time for difficult decisions to be made.

There is no shame in admitting that something will never get accomplished or even started. That is the main reason I sold all my early Hemi stuff 15 years ago. I was moving in a new direction and didn't think I would ever get them. It is was the same thing with all my old VW parts. Has there been times when I or someone need a part I used to have? Sure, but I cannot hold on to everything.
