RE: Auction: 1965 Fury II -- 1963 Polara 500

Mo, I have to disagree with you. It was a long time ago but if I remember right on my new 69 Road Runner Convertible that I ordered the pie plate on the air cleaner said “383 road runner” You’re right about the 440 heads and that’s one of the things that made the difference between the “road runner” 383 engine and the regular 383 4 bbl. On a sad note in 1971 I traded that RR convert in on a 6 cyl. Gremlin because gas was up to 38 cents a gallon. (SOB)

Herb, I have to disagree. On my new 68 Road runner I ordered, the 383 was called a "Magnum" because they were said by the factory to have 440 heads and HP exhaust manifolds. A little hype because I think the heads were the same anyway. I do believe the air-cleaner pie tin said "383 Magnum"......................................MO

RR's....383 Magnums.....NOT! Plymouths had Commando motors, Dodges had Magnum motors and Chryslers had TNT motors. Just my 2¢
