Re: 64 Plymouth GT/EA in Ennis
I raced a 1963 and 1964 Dodge with the 383 single 4 and dual inline 4 back in the day. The single 4 was rated at 330 HP and the dual inline 4 was rated at 335HP. The dual 4 was a dealer installed option. Jim Nichols (his father was Byron Nichols, President of Dodge division) had a 1962 that was supposed to be factory built. Chrysler execs and their offspring had a lot of one offs built in the company car garage. The most outrageous was Al Eckstrands 1962 Chrysler 300 built with a 4 speed manual trans and 413 cross ram. The trans was some kind of a French unit. Supposedly several cars were built. Al's was the only one I ever saw. It was used to set a speed record in the Flying Mile at Daytona. I guess you could build any combination with a B block and say it was factory built because somebody probably built it, back in the day, A lot of theses combinations ran Woodward Ave. and cleaned house.
