Subject: Empty Gas Tank Storage
I have recently acquired a good gas tank, that I want to use about a year
or so from now. The tank is clean of visible residue or rust at this
time. What would be the best way to keep the tank in good shape for the
future? Should I internally coat it with one of the available gas tank
sealers now, or when I install the tank? Or just leave it alone?
Any thoughts or experiences?
Thanks
Paul Thomassen

Subject: Fuel Tank Sending Unit Sock
Good afternoon,
Where can I get a new filter/sock for the sending unit in my G? I
thought I remembered someone saying that Year One had them, but I can't
find my catalog and it is not listed under any of the Mopar headings
on-line. Additionally, I don't see it in the Club listings of parts
available from NAPA.
Any help much appreciated.
Best regards,
Richard Osborne

Hi All,
I know some of you were looking to get some Plasticote
#210 Green Engine paint. I found that CarQuest has some
in their warehouse in the Midwest.
They also got me a temp. sender for my '63 300 with a
383 engine. $9.63 with tax (even cheaper than Ebay and no shipping!)
and the temp. gauge works great!
www.carquest.com
Thanks for all the technical assistance.
Regards,
Mark Lindahl
'63 300 Conv.

Subject: Ram part # is...
My rams are Part #1947163. That help anybody ID them clearly? According
to the Chrysler 300 Club, Inc. page that's a long ram, and it was
optional for the F, G, H, and K, standard on the J. I've gotten other
information that seems to indicate K's should only have short rams.
Anybody clear that up?
Thomas

With regards to rams, Tom, best thing is to check out the following link:
http://www.chrysler300club.com/uniq/allaboutrams/allaboutrams.html
This article, by Bob Merritt, will explain it all to you.
By the way , based on your previous e-mail, you have a bare pair of 1960
(long) rams

John wasn't the only person to refer me to this page, which I've already
seen. And it's part of the source of my confusion. It says:
"Short Rams were standard on the 300J and were used
on the optional engines for the 300F, 300G, 300H, and 300K.
Short Rams were designed for peak torque at 3600RPM"
But the consensus I'm getting is that short rams weren't used on the J's &
K's. Hence my confusion. Is it time to correct/update that page? Or is it
really correct to the effect that some later ('63/'64) cars did come with
the earlier ('60/'61) rams? And what of '63?
Thomas

Thomas......
J's all had short rams as standard...... and K's that were
optioned with rams had the short rams. I think the confusion arises as not
all K's had the ram option. Standard engine for a K was the 413 Firepower
360 with a single 4 bbl carb( Carter 3614S)
The Firepower 390 was the optional ram engine, with short rams and 2 x
Carter 3505S carbs, same as the J of '63.
The 'short' of course refers to the difference in internal passage length,
not the external measurement.
Dave.

I'm thinking of increasing the cubes on my 55 C-300. Take a look at this
web site and see if you think I can make it fit.

If you put the car and engine in orbit where weight doesn't mean anything,
