IT WAS A PERFECT FIT INTO THE CHASSIS


Chrysler LA engineFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Electronic fuel injection finally came to the 318in the1988 Dodge trucks(*an '89 Version Was Installed Here.).

This was, in contrast to the Imperial?s system, quite conventional, with a single dual-injector unit in the throttle body (one injector for each bank).Power output rose Along With Great Torque(In this year, oil capacity was reduced to five quarts, including filter.)
Itdramatically improved the MOPAR V8?s drive-abilityandreduced maintenance,boostinggas mileageandpoweralike.
Chrysler also added swirl intake ports to take advantage of the fuel injection.Since thepush-rodangle was slightly changed by the taller lifters, the push rod guide holes were changed from roughly 0.5 inches to 0.66 inches.The push rods became shorter, and their diameter shrunk from 0.360? to 0.3125?

The LA engines are a family of pushrod OHV 90° V-configured gasoline engines built by Chrysler Corporation. It was factory-installed in passenger vehicles, trucks and vans, commercial vehicles, marine and industrial applications from 1964 through 2003.The combustion chambers are wedge-shaped, rather than the polyspherical combustion chambers in the predecessor A engine or the hemispherical combustion chambers in theChrysler Hemi engine. All versions are made of cast iron, except for the Viper V10 which is aluminum.LA engines have the same 4.46 in (113 mm) bore spacing as the A engines. LA engines were made at Chrysler's Mound Road Engine plant in Detroit, Michigan, as well as plants in Canada and Mexico. The "LA" stands for "Light A", as the older "A" engine it was closely based on was nearly 50 pounds heavier. Willem Weertman, who later became Chief Engineer ? Engine Design and Development, was in charge of the conversion.[1] The basic design of the LA engine would go unchanged through the development of the "Magnum" upgrade (1992-1993).


And So Began The Life Of This Particular Labor Of Love and Unique"**MODERN" CLASSIC
While the car was purchase new during the Eisenhower Administration in Arizona it as been as much a local Santa Barbara resident as anyone I've met for the past 20 years.
In search of a new home. Maybe a few baby sisters he can teach about the good old days of internal combustion, Fonzie and hula hoops.
