1964 Chrysler 300K Ram Engine
One day this crate arrived. 
This is a 1964 Chrysler 300 K ram engine stamped C 300 K 2/21/64 |
|
| This engine has been rebuilt and been on the dyno. The plan is to transplant this engine into the J while the J engine is out for rebuild. |
|
While winter raged outdoors, I got out a spare set of short rams and prepared them for paint. |
After a thorough clean with a wire brush. |
Using the Bill Hirsch engine paint. |
|
Finished. |
On another set of short rams, a previous owner repaired a weak thread on the heat tube area of one ram with a helicoil. This repair worked well on this piece. |
They tried a helicoil on this ram but the casting was so thin the coil wouldn't hold. We installed a threaded bushing to solve the problem. |
Test fit with a pipe and we had a solid connection. I suppose if a fella ran without carb heat he wouldn't have to worry about this. |
| Below are the dyno reports from this engine in 2011. | |

This is the cam data.

This is a dyno test on a J engine from 1962.
