Re: [Chrysler300] 300H engines



I agree they could have used the 426 wedge, but they never did in the H.

I may be nuts, but I think I remember that in order to build product, car manufacturers were (are) required to list the parts and pieces with an agency before they start production. 

I can't think of the name.....might even be a government agency. I'm sure George or Gil can tell me the name. 

I can't find it but I am 99% sure I have a book from Chrysler of the 62 parts and pieces and I remember, that the book shows the 300H could have had the 413 engine or the 426. 

I am 99% sure no H's ever got the 426. It was just a situation that by listing the 426 in the book, Chrysler could have used that engine if they wanted to.

Hello Club,
Can someone tell me which powertrain options were available on the 300H? I am reading a book titled simply "Chrysler" by Dennis Adler published in 2000. It is supposed to be an overview of the history of Chrysler Corp. cars, but not an encyclopedia of every car or its options. However when it comes to the description of the 300's, it has the following to say about the 300H:

"The 300H came equipped with a 380 horsepower, 413-cubic inched V-8, or an optional 426 that could be ordered in 373-, 385-, 413-, or 421-horsepower versions!"

Can someone more knowledgeable enlighten me as to all these combinations of 426 engines?

Thanks,
Gary Runkel
Canton, MI
