There are some authenticity errors there... Did the B bodies come with a 170? I do not know for sure. I bet Dan will give the definitive Dan'swer to that. The Engine pictured is a '59 or '60 model with maybe a prototype Valve cover - Those did not arrive in '64 Production units. I also doubt any unit 170 equipped anything had dual exhausts. Cool stuff however, all of my poorly built models are collecting dust in the shop. When I moved onto full size metal cars that ran and drove. At ~ age 12-14 I became less interested in models, and never went back to them. |

I have a Lindberg kit #72176, of a '64 Dodge 330, in 1/25th scale, that has both a 383 and a 225 in it. Don't really know how old it is, or if it's even available anymore. Another of those pieces I picked up along the way for my retirement....Roger |

I'm pretty sure the 170 engine was for "A" bodies only. The 170 was not even available in the Barracuds, the 225 was the base engine. |

That is sort of what I was thinking.. I will hopefully be building a flyweight 170 machine in the future!Greg |
