Sold to the public, but obviously not many before the engine was dropped

Hey Larry, altho most round here are bowtie-centric, we have recently (I mean Charley has) added a Mopar section and would love to have you stick around and participate. We have a number of closet Mopar fans. I have always been a Mopar fan and have a '62 S/S Savoy raced in the Chicago area.

Hey, here's some trivia for you folks - this was part of a discussion on Moparts earlier this year:

The 1972 V-code was only available with an automatic!

Welcome Larry and thanks for the post on the cool Mopar. I always thought the 440-6 ended with model year 71 production.

They were going to release the 6 pack in 72 but it did not meet the new emission laws for 72 so they had to pull it. A few slipped out very early in production.
