As far as I know only the 51-53 Chrysler 331s had the built in bellhousing. In fact in the "Tex Smith's The Complete Chrysler Hemi Engine Manual" they state DeSoto and Dodge never had the extended bellhousing. HTH Bryce

Would love a baby hemi for my rat rod p/u but cannot afford one. Very expensive to build as well. Guess I'll have to stick to 318 power...
331's especially long bell 331's are not every expensive at least here in the midwest it seems. I have seen one's in good to great shape from 500 to 1000. I cant imagine for a re-ring kit or a complete rebuilt with machine shop work would be much cheaper for a small block mopar? Its not like we are talking an early hemi vs a 350 chevy which you can build with money saved up from a couple of trips picking up aluminum cans.
