Never trust anything that a Plymouth owner says or documents that said owner may posess. When I get home I will check my documents, and take a look at the original cars I have laying around...

one more thing, do your cars have the wire clip on the steering conector at the box? this clip was put on all 440 installs because the engine was put down in with manifolds installed so the column was removed then put back and the clip held the joint together better then just bending those little tabs.i was at the last reunion and all the 440 cars had them. and who do you think made that mount? not chrysler

I guess that you don't believe that MoPar built these cars on the line,so be it.Yes,my car has that clip on top of the coupler,and I believe that all M-code A-bodies have them,but the tabs on this clip go into the roll pin holes,so you need to remove or move it back to get the pin out of the coupler.So this clip would have nothing to do with holding the coupler together with the column out of the car,regardless of the reason.As far as the motor mount bracket,Chrysler doesn't produce many if any parts themselves,they are outsourced just like that bracket.These few things you've mentioned doesn't prove that Hurst built these cars.Until I see an official document from Chrysler or Hurst about who built these cars,I'm going with Chrysler.

XI (Axle ratios) According to Chrysler, you could also get 3:91s

PIB with 3:91 info

well i'm back with some nagging questions that need clearing up. 1, why did the cars come down the line with 383s on the vin tag then have to change, why didn't it just start as a 440? it wasn't like they didn't know they where making them. my fender tag has the 383 number. 2, that wire clips only purpose is to hold that joint lid on,leads me to think it was removed after assembly for some reason. i haven't seen them on any other car in these numbers. any ideas

This is my best guess,1st these cars aren't coded for 383's on the vin tag,only on the data plate and then only in the engine option box.The reason for the "M" designation on the vin is that the Dart line was never available with a 440 as a standard option,so I'm assuming that MoPar instead of using the regular B-body vin code for 440 they just decided to use the "M" code to designate these cars as special order/special build.The reason for the 383 coding is the rest of these cars are identical to a regular build 383 car,w/o the availability of a few regular 383 options. 2nd,the clamp on the steering box,I really can't answer this one,but all I can say is that there is a part# for it in the 69 parts book for usage on all car lines and models,and I have personally seen these before on some pick-ups. Anyone else with a theory.Here's a pic of my M-code GTS. John.

someone was in there AFTER the fact , the factory used BLACK seals , that orange has been said to be later than 69 . the clip is something Chrysler came up with because once you pop that cover off after it's been put together the first time it's almost impossible to keep the cover from not popping back off .

When that was taken apart and for why ???

Also there was a member that was selling those clips for sometime .
