I am looking into custom hood emblem for my Challenger, but need to know what size the originals are before I order a set. Either the 383 or 440 Magnum should work. There are a lot of places to see where to locate, or drill the holes, but I can not find anything about the actual emblem size.
Thanks !!!  Just for fun, a rendering of what I am doing.

Just measured my 383 Magnum emblem. The measurements aren't straightforward because the numbers/letters are slanted front to back.

The 383 measures 7/16" tall by 2 3/16" long

The Magnum measures 3/8" tall by 3 5/16" long

Overall length is 5 9/16"

Where are you having these done, or is it something you're doing yourself ?

I was thinking 'Cuda392  :thinking: for an upcoming project.

I found a place called Alpha Emblems, he has a some examples on his Facebook page. They seem to do a lot of Mopar stuff, so I'm glad to see that. The price is not cheap, but you are getting billet aluminum CNC pieces that looks fairly correct, verses the plastic that some of the other places use. I have a couple of links below if that helps.
