       Doug,

       Some help to your questions may be the following:

       The 340hp had a stroke of 3.375 (9.5-1 comp) and the 360 hp had a 
stroke of 3.750 (10-1 comp).
       Also, the 340hp had 1.60 in head dia valves and the 360hp had 1.75
in 
dia.
       You could installed the longer connecting rods, but there would be 
more backpressure in you exhaust.  You would probably need to replace the 
heads, which will fit, from a 360hp engine.

413...

My gosh -- a stroker 413?  Not a chance!

There was no difference in rods...

All 413s shared the same stroke(along with the 440s, 426s and the late 
hemis) of 3.75in..A 3.38 in. stroke was shared by the 361, 383 and400 inch

engines. Compression ratios are determined by a combination of piston
crown 
height& combustion chamber volume in the head. They didn't change rod 
lengths to vary compression, it was a lot more cost effective to alter the

shape of the piston crown to do it. Exhaust backpressure is more a
function 
of airflow thru the engine versus flow capacity of the exhaust system than

anything else.

       To all that have commented to my info,

       I got my info for an original Chrysler shop service manual that I 
aquired when I worked for a Chyrsler dealer back in the mid 70s as a
mechanic.

Subject: 300K engines

Ok, since we are taking about the differences in 413 engines of different
horsepower, can anyone tell me what the differences are between the 300K
"standard" 413 (single 4-barrel, 360 horsepower, code V41) and the 300K
crossram induction engine (2-4 barrels, 390 horsepower, code C300K)? I'm
talking about the internal engine and head differences, not things like
the
obvious intake and exhaust differences. I know that the 390 horsepower
engines have solid lifters, lower compression ratios, etc., but I would
like
to know more precisely what the differences are. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Jim Helm

       Jim,

       I will appempt to scan pages from my service manual on all the
specs 
and get them back to all (I'm not very good at that and I need my 14 yr
old 
Daughter's Help)

       Also, I was at the local Penastar's Cruise Night aand learned
another 
meaning for MOPAR, (This is a goo one) Massively Over Powered Asphault 
Ripper.

       Last, but not least, while at the Cruise, my 300-K was photographed

for a "Moparland", a Northeast PA Mopar web site.  They told me that I
will 
see it soon..

       The web site is a great "PLUG" for Mopars!

They have a special pentastar (mopar logo) shape for holding the original 
vin plate on.
They are not available to the general public, the DMV guys consider it a 
crime to fool around with those vin plates.

Subject: '60 radio delete plate

Having now't better to do on a wet 'n windy winter's day, this 'puzzle'
that has been bugging me came to the fore, and I just know that someone
will have the answer......
I have a '60 Chrysler radio delete plate, # 2080008. My '60/''61 parts
books both list this number. My '62 book says # 2162145.
My plate is all chrome,including the Chrysler script.
Another I have seen, described as for '60-'62 Chryslers had the Chrysler
script in gold. It looked exactly similar, save the gold script.
Was this the '62 delete plate ?  Did they all have the Chrysler script in
gold, and mine has simply been 'polished off' ?
How was the script, which was obviously part of the casting, be gold, and
the rest chromed?
              Thanks folks........
                                    Dave.

Subject: Re: 300K engines

The page in the shop manual you are looking at is showing the "firepower
305" and "Firebolt 265"  as being the short stroke engines. VC-2 IS a 300,
but it is the non-letter variety, and the base engine is the 383 with the
3.375 stroke. The page is somewhat confusing as it does not list 300-K as
a
separate model (It is VC-4), but as an option on the base model. The 413,
426, & 440 had only one stroke, 3.750 period.
300ly,
    Don
