Re: 331 hemi

[Bill Watson <wwatson6@xxxxxxx>]

331 hemis were put in Saratogas (1951-52), New Yorkers and Imperials 
(1951-55).   None offered a 3-speed manual, with Fluid Drive or Fluid Torque 
Drive and the 4-speed Fluidmatic semi-automatic (1951-53) and then 
Powerflite automatic as standard equipment.

The 1956 Chrysler Windsor offered a 331 poly (same engine, different heads & 
other internal parts) with a 3-speed manual transmission as standard 
equipment and Powerflite optional.  No overdrive, though.
