Mopars at Englishtown (same event later re-named Mopar Atlantic Nationals in the early 1990s), June of 1989 or 1990--I forget which--and because none of the photos I took back then have any date printed on the back of them!

Who remembers this wedge cylinder block to 426 HEMI head conversion block? The way to go if you couldn't find an original (or affordable) 426 HEMI block in the 1980s and before the re-release of the 426 HEMI cylinder block by Mopar Performance in 1992. I forget the name of the two guys whose shop did the conversion.

The 1969 Road Runner pictured below had a 426 HEMI in its engine compartment based upon this modified wedge block. If you didn't know this (and didn't look closely) you'd swear it was the real McCoy.
