I am NOT a Mopar Guy, but I have been told this is a .020 over Warranty Engine...

It was removed from a Totalled '69 Hemi Roadrunner, easily a buildable car today, but not so much in the mid 80's...

The engine was taken to a noted local Machinist and Engine Builder, Harold Hoffman, and deemed to be in such perfect shape, he went to the local Chrysler Dealer, got a Factory Gasket set, and reassembled...

It was then parked in the garage, and not moved for over 30yrs...
