You can use the Hemi crank in a RB engine however there is the issue of balance
(the Hemi has heavier stock rods) and a 8 bolt flange on the Hemi as opposed to a
6 bolt on the RB engine. Both the 440 and 426 have 3.75 stroke. However the Low
block (383-400) has smaller mains and you cannot use the Hemi crank without
cutting down the mains.
