Re: Time changes & Plymouth 1962, 413 Max Wedge engine fs

Hmmm I could get a 454 for cheap, with trans, and drop it in my Chrysler.  Or I could put in a Mercedes 5 cyl turbo diesel.....why not.  At these prices it would be more fun to shock people with something weird than correct.

If it needs to be period correct, it all adds up quick on an MW.  I'd
guess off the top of my head the following parts prices.

Cross RAM intake - $1,500
Upswept exhaust manifolds - $1,500
Correct AFB carbs - $1,200
MW Heads - $2,000
Block - $1,500
Crank - $1,000
Air Cleaners - $500

Then linkage, oil pan, pistons, cam, etc.

It ain't no Chebby 350, that's for sure.
