Re: 1965 Plymouth Sport Fury 426 Wedge

The engine is a 1964 413, assembled on 23 March 1964. It is probably not the original engine that came in the car. Yes, it is possible for an old 1964 413 to be used in a 1965 production car, but this car did not come with a 413 originally. The window sticker and fender tag data are correct for a 426 street wedge which were original to that car.

I believe the 426 street wedge block has a different casting number than the 413 block, but I don't know for certain.

The 426 street wedge is not the same thing as a Max Wedge, and thus the block casting numbers would possibly also be different between 426 street wedge and 426 max wedge.

The correct engine for that car would be stamped "A426".

- VIN #P452213723
- On the engine pad in front of the intake manifold it is stamped: V41323
- Block Casting number is 1852029-3
- Casting date is 1.14.64 found after removing the starter.
- The casting dates on the 3 parts of the transmission are:
Case______________.1 20.
Shift lever cover_____.1 13.
Extension housing___.12 2.

My doubts are:

The CID indicated in the motor pad, is a engine/CID 413. .....
- Was this block the same used to build 426 engine?

- Could be 1965 and older RB engines V41 323 machined and assembled on March 23, 1964 ;.... and be in a January 28, 1965 car?

- Should not be 2406730 or 2532230 the correct block casting number to Max Wedge engines?

According to an appraiser "Believed to be a matching Numbers 426 Street Wedge Four Speed".

- Is this information sufficient to determine if this is the correct engine for this car?

I am attaching images of fender tag and window sticker.

Many thanks in advance for your attention and help.
