There were two similar looking castings, one used in '60-'62 and the
other in '63 and '64, at least in Chrysler 300s.  Plymouth and Dodge
had them available in the early 60s, too.

In a 300, they can really make the car move, but the rams are tuned for really
low-end torque.  The web page I mentioned above says 2800 RPM.

So, this engine isn't in the car yet?  The reason I ask is because the rams 
won't fit into a B-body without cutting the pass. side inner fender. 
I have pics
from when I tried to fit them into my '64 Ddoge:

There's some pics in the bottom section showing where it dosen't fit.

I wasn't willing to cut my car, but they sure do look cool!
