I have a 6.4 in a 69 Dart on a /6 k member and Schumacher mounts. My TTi shorties fit perfect. Same car, with a 5.7 mock up at one point and TTi long tubes also fit great. Not one ding needed anywhere.
‘63GT on here can attest to the efficiency of the Prefix single plane on my heap. After he slightly rubbed on my BGE heads to flow 360+ he flowed the Prefix intake: ZERO air loss. 600 Hp with a stock short block, a cam and a carb-ed intake is cake
I think it’s pick your poison. There are carbed gen 3 hemis that make good power at 108, and at 112 in NA applications. Of course if you have any forced induction you want a wide LSA.

There is an electric pump for the hemi; one that I know of … and it’s $pendy!!!

Also, Chrysler did make an "industrial" big block engine block. It is casting number 2658836. These are sometimes referred to as "cold weather" blocks, such as on page 19 of Chuck Senator's "Big Block Mopar Performance" book from HP Books. The casting number on these can be hard to find...
Pulled from a running car; last pass was a 10.14 @ 130. I changed up my combo to a gen 3 hemi, so I don’t need it. No wiring and no rubber mounts. New boxes are $800-900, but I’ll take $375 shipped.
