[Chrysler300] 413 engine & trans

["John J. Hertog" <crossram@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

To Lee and all,

The person who e-mailed me the ad also sent me pictures of the 
engine/trans - I barely looked at them.  However, after reading Lee's post, 
I went back and peeked more carefully.   Sure enough - water pump sits a lot 
higher than on any RB motor I've ever seen !

Thanks Lee.  Good to learn something new... I was not aware that motorhome 
413's were so different .

Interesting to note that the trans. has a parking brake assembly on it not 
unlike our 300's ...  wonder what that is all about...  I had not noticed 
that either...

John
