I just picked up this big lump as a replacement for the dead 383 in my '64 Chrysler 300.
Stamped on the pad is V 41 with 5 15 below it. No other markings. Block casting number is

1852029-2

11-7-63

It's also orange, the seller says he pulled it from a '64 Chrysler New Yorker. All Chrysler engines that year were turquoise. So unless it got repainted at some point....is this a performance engine from a Dodge or Plymouth? or a plain old truck engine....or?







What it's going in!
