Max Wedge Interesting Fact

[Albert Lee]

Here's how I remember it. Stage I was a de facto term but NOT for the 1962 413. In mid 1963, Chrysler enhanced the 426 with bigger carbs and a couple of other improvements and called it a Stage II thus the early '63 became the de facto Stage 1. The '64 motor was the Stage III.

As an aside, NHRA never allowed the larger carbs on the '63 models.

Do you still own your '63 wagon?

WINNER!!!!! Fought with nhra over this for years somewhere i have factory paper work from Chrysler for dealer service and parts dept.that states the 3705's carbs are replacement for the 3447 on all models and years, 3447 carbs were no longer available for purchase.
the 3447 was nothing more then an adapted long ram carb.

my 63 Super Stock? legally?
