for a 426 I'd venture to guess you'll end up relocating the master cylinder,
but since it is technically a big block.. it will bolt in.. And you say
600HP 426 Hemi like that is a difficult task. At the rated 425HP, the motor
was just running, not even well tuned.
IMHO a 600HP Hemi is a nice street motor
