It sure looks like a 426 Hemi to me.

Now that is awesome. What's the vintage of this footage?
It does look like a hemi head too. Does the piston have the
correct dome configuration for a hemi? Any hemi guys here?

It looks like it has 4 valves but the spark plug location and valve geometry sure look like a 426 hemi. Here's one of my pistons to compare:

Hey Steve!

Is that funny hole in the piston where the camera was hiding?

This was the result of the second owner of my Charger trying to rebuild the hemi drunk, while sharing a case of beer with his buddies. He installed them all backwards. The motor locked up and it punched the valve head through the cylinder head and the piston. Very impressive. I carry the schrapnel in my glove box for car show use now.

Friends don't let friends rebuild engines drunk.
