Hi Curtis, ???? Thanks for your reply. Whoever told you Chrysler 413 had 8 to 1 compression ratio. It is a fact that all 413 that came in Imperials and New Yorkers had 10 to 1 and some 300 letter series and some Dodge and Plymouth Super Stockers had 11 to 1 and even 13 to 1. Everybody knows that -----just ask any guy who has a 413. ----oooppps----sorry-----I see you do own a 59 Dodge with a 413. I raced both 413 and 440 and the big difference between the two was almost in all cases some improvement other than the 27 inches. All the guys I raced with didn't pronounce a motor dead until they found out what was wrong with it.-------Today some guys pronounce an engine dead just because THEY can't start it. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Ron Allyn Swartley PS. I guess you do know the 59 Dodge did not have a 413 in it. The 383 with 2/4s was a big as you could go-----------STOCK.
