Before I make a mistake please help new mopar fan!!

THE THING THAT all of you forgot to address is this caution----Chrysler did not MAKE any 413's in 1970 except in trucks and motor homes. Some of these had vastly different cylinder heads and water pump setups. What this means is, that if you buy a late 413 and it IS a heavy truck engine, what you have there is a low compression short block. You'll have to throw away the heads, water pump, and a few other things, and then go out and find the ones that are compatible with 413/426/440 AUTOMOTIVE engines

Here's some pictures of a "heavy" 413. I don't remember if the intake fits, but the heads and water pump hookup are very much different than an auto engine

Now in their defense, these truck engines often have good forged cranks and good rods, it's just that you'll have to toss most of the rest.


So---------be careful what you're getting into.
