It was there. They pulled it from the tent end of day Monday. I looked it over and the next day thought I had lost my mind because it wasn't there and it wasn't online. My guess is there was a title issue that had to be resolved.

It's my understanding that only the D501 used 57 Fury/Chrysler 300C air cleaners (painted black). Dodge used a different variety. I'm also seeing conflicting information as to whether the 57 Dodge D500 was a single 4bbl or dual quad setup.

I am not going to step in the quagmire of 57 Dodge D501 info other than to say that, as far as I know, they used the Chrysler 300 354 dual quad engine. (Runs away and hides)

As for the 57 D500s there were two engines, both were 325 double rockers ("hemi"). The "normal" D500 had a single 4 bbl carb. The upgrade was the "Super D-500" which used
dual 4 bbls.
