The
Plymouth 260 is essentially identical to the Dodge 270 Poly V8. It also shares
many interchangeable parts with 241/270 Hemis and 315/325 Hemis and Polys. These
are all the same basic family, with changes in bore/stroke and heads.
The 277 is
the first of the A series engines, with the 318 as the most common member. None
of the castings are interchangeable with the 260. There are a few minor
components that interchange.

Subject: [FWDLK] '55 Plymouth 260
vs '56 277 V8
Hello list...
Could anyone tell me the differences in the '55 Plymouth 260
V8s made by Dodge for Plymouth, in terms of what interchanges with the
Dodge engines and what is the difference in the '56 277 V8 besides more ci,
that was made by Plymouth?
(Are they all poly A series motors?)
Maybe a good website for reference?
Thanks
