Lot 6CM029P: 1968 Dodge Charger

Based on current market trends and enthusiast forums, the most popular engine swaps for 1968 Dodge Chargers are:

1. Gen III HEMI swaps (5.7L, 6.4L 392, 6.2L Hellcat) - The modern HEMI swap is extremely popular for restomod builds, offering modern reliability and power (up to 717+ hp with Hellcat)

2. 440 Big Block Mopar - Traditional Mopar big block that was a factory option, offering massive torque and classic muscle car character

3. 426 HEMI (reproduction or original) - The legendary Elephant engine, either original or modern reproductions like the 528ci stroker versions

4. 383 Big Block - Larger displacement version of what’s already in your car, common upgrade path

5. Modern LS swaps - While controversial among Mopar purists, LS swaps offer cost-effective modern performance

6. 340/360 Small Block - Lighter weight option that still provides good power-to-weight ratio

The trend is definitely toward modern HEMI swaps for restomods, while traditionalists stick with period-correct Mopar big blocks. Your numbers-matching 383/4-speed combo is actually quite rare and desirable as-is!
