'1968' ~ 'The Way Mopar Should Have Been'

Fred,

Mopar did play with the idea of a 318 'Econo-Performance' Engine in October 1967 for the upcoming 1968 Model year.

It was to be rated at 240 HP, and was to be for the Valiant 'S' and Dart GT only.

Jerry Gross, Engineer/Tech at Chrysler tested this combination.

For some reason, it was shot down by the Chrysler Heads.
