I have got a very good hint for you to keeping the nice old Engine in good shape with todays ultra dry eco fuels: Use 1:100 API TC two stroke oil / fuel mix as regular driving fuel, that keeps the old fuel-system gaskets, rubber parts, alloy parts etc... and cast iron metal surfaces of those vintage engines in excellent shape and it also lubricates the valves and upper piston regions. Most Porsche vintage owners do so Also keeps carbs and tank clean and rustfree! ..
While I really like Mopars, perhaps , in part at least because I learned to drive on my father's 1950 Dodge, I like all well designed cars, be they be Chevy or other Gm, Ford, or even foreign cars. The lines of a 49 Cadillac Fastback, or a 58 Bonneville, or a 54 Mercury or a 56 T-bird are very nice indeed in my opinion.
Thanks again for taking the time to post your comment.
Summitdrinker: Thanks for the compliment. The 413 with the inline 2x4 setup was rated at 385 hp, wasn't it? I agree with your sentiments about the 62-64 b bodies.
Congrats on a job well done! My husband has a '62 Dart 440 Convertible. Hopefully when he finishes it, it'll look as nice as yours does. And it sounds great!
Thanks for the compliment. The engine is a 413 wedge out of a 1964 Imperial. I wanted a 2x4 setup but didn't want to pay the $s for a crossram. The intake amd carbs are Edlebrock items.

unsure what dodge rated there's at, but it was the same engine that went into NONE ram 300's. the 300's were rated at 380HP in 1962
the 1962 300's 413 Ram intake were rated at 405hp

62 B body 2x4 inlines were very rare, a early year option that was dropped for the max wedge.
unsure how many were made but less than 100 total from dodge/plymouth I would guess
nice looking machine, 62 thru 64 b bodies are my favorite cars

Evil95GT: Thanks for the compliments on the car. And good luck to your husband as he finishes his 440. I think 1962 Dodges are way cool!

nice engine but doesn't look like a 413 wedge.if it is a 413 why wouldn't you leave it stock looking.
