Paul: I believe that the 383 was High or Low Deck.............................................. ...........................................But the 361 and 350 Both
were low deck only. My Friend (John Greenwood 72 AHRA SS Champion) had a 58 Plymouth Fury Wagon with a 350 and Dual Four Barrels.... Ran 15.22 at Lions Early 60's. LOTS of 350/361/383/413 had Dual Inline AFBs, I HAVE seen them on cars available to the public as well as brochures on Police Packages. Called "Golden Commando Power or Silver Commando Power" as I recall. Even 318 Poly had Dual Four Barrel Option in 57 until early 60's Factory produced (318/260HP) I bought one in later 60's from Smith Bros (Now Pro Trans)that was AHRA National Record Holder at 12.82. These are vehicles that I have owned or at least seen and touched.

In fact: Mopar made extensive use of Dual Inline AFB Four Barrels since mid 1950's. 55 - 59 Chrysler 300 Letter Series/ De Soto Adventurers/ Dodge D500 are a few that I remember first had seeing when they were new.

Paul: Congrats on you guys win tonight at LVMS.
