Subject: '64 Dodge 361/383 exhaust manifold
question The 361 engine that I bought to replace the long ago discarded 383
in my '64 Polara was pulled from a '64 Chrysler Newport complete with everything
attached. I thought was a good thing because it would replace many small missing
parts. But I quickly learned there are differences. The motor mounts were
completely different and I had to buy a set of new retro mounts (more than I
paid for the engine). The throttle and trans kick down levers are also
completely different, but I did not need those. Which leads to the question of
the l/h exhaust manifold. The last time I saw the one removed from '64 Polara
was 25 years ago, so I don't remember much about it, I was not paying attention.
The 318 poly engine in my parts car has the exhaust exiting out of the rear of
the l/h manifold. The 383 engine we installed in my son's '64 wagon uses '66
manifolds and the exhaust exits out of the rear of the manifold. However, the
Chrysler 361 l/h manifold the exhaust exits between the last two cylinders. Is
this different from "B" body manifolds? I have not been able to find a '64 383
example. Or does it matter if exhaust system is made for it? I do want the car
to appear original. -- -- Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
