Never realized the 'limited' productions numbers for the Charger 383 '4-Speed'.
Only 258 out of 19,012 'Charger 383' cars produced, were 4-Speeds. (1.4%).
Found an old article, stating that Chrysler was worried about the 4-Speed drivers
getting too rough with the near #3700 lb. Charger, and destroying the drive-train components.
"Limited 4-Speeds = Limited Warranty Repairs"
Charlie A,
Performance numbers sound 'right on'. My friend ran his 'stock' 1968 Charger 383 in H/SA in 1969.
15.30's @ 92 MPH.
Also confirmed, the 1968 Charger 383/330 HP 4-Barrel was 'not' the 383/335 HP 'H-Code engine that
was found in the 1968 Dodge Super Bee.
The 1968 Charger '383 4-Barrel' did 'not have the 440 Camshaft, Valve Train, Windage Tray and 440
Exhaust System.
