Anyone here ever build a 392 HEMI?

I just got one & I am looking for ideas

There used to be a good thread on this. The parts used to be hard to find which made them close to the same price when finished as a 426. There's more aftermarket support now though. They seem to be a favorite of street rodders and they look really cool in an open engine bay with lots of chrome.

Here's some places to look for parts:

Another good source of information (but not a comprehensive guide by any stretch) is the book; Tex Smith's The Complete Chrysler Hemi by Ron Ceridono.  ISBN 1-878772-01-5
