1955 Chrysler 300 with a 426 HEMI

Published in engineswapdepot.com

The Roadster Shop took the wraps off one of their newest completed projects, a 1955 Chrysler 300. The car sits on a modified FAST TRACK chassis which includes an IFS and four-link rear suspension with upgraded Baer brakes. Under the hood they installed a 6.4 L Gen 3 HEMI V8 which was increased to 426 ci (6.98 L). To help the engine appear like the original 5.4 L Gen 1 FirePower V8 they created custom valve covers and adapted the original intake system. Behind the engine sits a GM 4L80-E four-speed automatic transmission connected to a Ford 9″ rear end.
