Hey S Man,

They wrote 325 HP on it...

Most likely (on today's dyno) it would be nearer 375HP w/390 ft/lbs torque... ??

Fellow on my paper route had a '61 Chrysler 300. 413cid "Cross Ram" intake.

Speedo in car went to 160mph. So did the car! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Cars were so much KOOLER then!!

Ya'll just keep bringing back memories.......... During high school I worked in a small gas station. A (I'm serious) little old lady brought one of those in for a tune up. Big ol console with a mechanical tach, buckets, floor shift.... I'm not sure which year but early '60s. Biggest engine I had ever seen with that cross ram. After mechanic was done he told me to take it down the street and wash it. You know what happened next... After the wash, I pulled out onto the street and did what any 17 year old would do. That's the closest I ever came to wetting my pants! When I got back mechanic asked me how it ran.."Ok, I guess".
