Default Re: What's New for 1968

1968 Plymouth Sport Satellite

The 383 was available with 330 Horsepower,,,,,,,not 335 HP like the Road Runner.

Same engine block, cylinder heads, intake and Carter AVS carburetor, but with a 'milder hydraulic camshaft' and 'standard pressure valve springs'. The Road Runner engine had the 440 'Super Commando' camshaft, valve springs and exhaust manifolds.

Also, the Sport Satellite was about 150+ lbs. heavier than the 'bare bones' Road Runner.

In 1968, the 383/335 HP 'Road Runner' was classed in E/Stock, and the 383/330 HP' Sport Satellite' was classed in F/Stock.
