1963 Mopar Max Wedge Engine - Complete

Thanks for the info on the carbs guys! The 1964 manifold is legal on a '63 as are the 518 '64 heads. ( although they can be cut to 81 cc.) The '63 415hp Engine (low comp.) uses a slightly different piston spec than the '64 per NHRA, however, the High Comp. '63 and '64 pistons are the same. The Engine I'm selling is a legal Low Compression 415hp 1963 Engine. Also, I think you could get away with running '63 carbs on a '64, I don't know why you would, but, given the state of "stock" they'd probably let you go since the carbs are too small ! One more piece of info ....a little birdie told me that the '63 ('63 only) 415hp engine will be 405HP in 2011.
