Re: 1962 Plymouth Belvedere Station Wagon 318 Poly Automatic giving it a Soviet Touch Hellcat Engine or 440 Nitros

[<62-65-mail-list-club@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Great project! One step at a time. With patience. :)

"Hellcat crate engine or 440 twin turbo with Nitro's oxide. That's the question."  Either one would probably give the Max 
Wedge engine versions a good test. Simplicity versus complexity and tuning / maintenance issues  may tilt the decision 
toward the Hemi. 

By the way, here is a link to an article called "Everything You Wanted to Know About Gen III Hemi Engines" that includes 
specific details about blocks, cranks, pistons, connecting rods, cylinder heads, camshafts, valvetrain, lubrication system, 
intakes, and superchargers for these Hemi engines.

Lastly, yes that's a method to start a brand new discussion thread, that is matching the "subject" line with the content in 
the message.  One simple way to do that from scratch is to start a new email, address it to the group address 
(1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)  and put the discussion topic in the "subject" line and fill in the details 
expanding on the subject topic . Once the email is posted to the group you can keep that discussion going by replying to 
that original posting.

Good luck with the project. 

Thanks,
Gary H.
