My bad: the '58 Adventurer and Super D500 both used 361 lo-blocks, albeit with different horsepower ratings. The raised block 383 didn't appear until '59. Keith
Plymouth Fury and dodge D500 had wedges too (340/361 CID) - I think the Bendix may have been available on those, though not sure any survived the dealer dual quad retrofit. In any case, I think the Desoto 383 was a hi-block (unlike later 383's), which would make this intake a DeSoto-only item. Keith
The DeSoto uses a wedge engine, while the 58 Chrysler is a Hemi. This would
be DeSoto only.

Thanks for the information. This
is the "Holy Grail" of Chrysler Corporation induction systems. I have
never seen one this complete. I have seen the bare manifold, but never the
injector bodies. I have also never seen the special distributor for the spark
plugs and injectors, not sure how that was done. That guy selling this is
selling a VERY rare item, but has eliminated any "Normal enthusiast" from trying
to get one back on the road, like myself. I will keep searching the Garage
sales, and keep hoping I find one from someone not knowing what it is. My
question also, does the De Soto intake and Chrysler intake manifold interchange?
Hopefully? I'll just keep looking, knowing they actually do exist, it's like
seeing something from mythology or legend.
