So the '55 301 spitfire
will take all the 331 hemi parts, intake, water pump fuel pump
pulleys and such? Like from Hot heads ect. The reason I ask is there is a
very nice '55 Windsor 2 door HT on eBay right now priced fair that has the
301. No PS or PB BUT I have both complete PS and PB set ups in my
shop...

Chrysler's 1955 301-cid poly shares parts only with 1951-58
Chrysler hemi/poly engines. They are different from Dodge, DeSoto
and Plymouth poly/hemi engines of the 1950's. The
Chrysler 301 was basically a small bore 331 - both had a 3.625" stroke,
but the 331 had a 3.81" bore with the 301 having a 3.625"
bore.
When it comes to manifolds and heads, nothing interchanges
between Chrysler, DeSoto, Dodge and Plymouth engines as the bore centres
are all different. The Dodge engines had the smallest bore centre (the
distance from the centre of one bore to the next), followed by DeSoto,
Chrysler and then Plymouth (or A block).
The Plymouth 301 has a
3.91" bore with a 3.125" stroke, a true over-square engine (bore bigger
than the stroke).

Hello all.. On the 1955 Chrysler 301 Poly,(spitfire?)
what interchanged with that motor in terms of speed equipment, intake cam
water, fuel pumps and so on? Are they the same as the Plymouth and Dodge
polys? Dose it share anything with the Plymouth 301/318
