Chuck,

The mid-year (1962 1/2') 383/343 HP in the Dodge Polara 500
and/or Plymouth Sport Fury combination knocked off another Mopar
for B/SA in 1963.

In early-1963, the 'Hot Combination' for B/SA was the 1961 Plymouth Fury 'Hardtop Coupe' with the
'Optional Dodge Engine' (413/375 HP 'Cast iron In-line Dual-carbed engine).

But by mid-year 1963, the secret was out, and the 'lighter' 383/343 HP cars were out-running the 'bulky' 1961 Plymouth's.
