245 cu in (4.0 L)

  Chrysler "hemi" 245 prototype, on display at the National motor museum, Birdwood, South Australia

The 245 was the initial version of the Hemi-6 engine. It was first used in the 1970 VG-model Valiant, and was available clear through to the final CM model of 1981.

Specifications (for 1bbl carbureted variant):

• Bore Size: 3.76 in (95.5 mm)
• Stroke: 3.68 in (93.5 mm)
• Compression ratio: 9.5:1
• Power: 165 hp (123 kW) @ 4600 rpm
• Torque: 235 lb·ft (318 Nm) @ 1800 rpm
• Intake valve head diameter: 1.845 in (46.9 mm)
• Exhaust: 1.500 in (38.1 mm)

245LC (Low Compression) released in 1977

• Bore Size: 3.76 (95.5 mm)
• Stroke: 3.68 (93.5 mm)
• Compression ratio: 7.6:1
• Power: 130 hp (97 kW) estimate
• Torque: 180 lb·ft (240 N·m) estimate
• Intake valve head diameter 1.845 inch (46.9 mm)
• Exhaust valve head diameter 1.500 inch (38.1 mm)

265 cu in (4.3 L)

  Chrysler Hemi 265ci 6-cylinder hemispherical combustion chambers with large intake and exhaust valves (removed) and big square ports

The 265 was introduced in 1971 in the VH. It used a new cylinder block with a bigger bore diameter of 3.91 in (99.3 mm)—the same as many of the Chrysler small-block V8s—and a new cylinder head, having slightly more hemispherical shaped combustion chambers with larger valves.

The standard version of the 265 produced 203 hp (151 kW) @ 4600 rpm and 262 lb·ft (355 N·m) of torque @ 2800 rpm.

The top of the line performance engine in the E49 Chargers produced 302 hp (225 kW) @ 5600 rpm and 320 lb·ft (434 N·m) of torque @ 4400 rpm. The increased power is due mainly to a more aggressive camshaft, high-load valve springs, triple 45 mm DCOE Weber sidedraught carburetors, tuned-length exhaust headers and a higher compression ratio of 10.0:1.

Specifications (for 2bbl carbureted variant):

• Bore Size: 3.91 in (99.3 mm)
• Stroke: 3.68 in (93.5 mm)
• Compression ratio: 9.5:1
• Power: 203 hp (151 kW) @ 4600 rpm
• Torque: 262 lb·ft (355 Nm) @ 2800 rpm
• Intake valve head diameter: 1.96 in (49.8 mm)
• Exhaust: 1.60 in (40.6 mm)

215 cu in (3.5 L)

This economy-orientated version of the Hemi 6 was released as a running change in early 1971 as the base model engine in the VH Valiant. This engine shares the same stroke length as the other engines but has a smaller bore size of 3.52 inches (89 mm) and lower compression ratio of 8.0:1. It ran on regular petrol and produced 140 hp (104 kW) at 4400 rpm and 200 lb·ft (270 N·m) of torque at a low 1800 rpm.

Specifications:

• Bore Size: 3.52 in (89.4 mm)
• Stroke: 3.68 in (93.5 mm)
• Compression ratio: 8.0:1
• Power: 140 hp (104 kW) @ [4400] rpm
• Torque: 200 lb·ft (270 Nm) @ [1800] rpm
• Intake valve head diameter: 1.835 in (46.6 mm)
• Exhaust valve head diameter: 1.500 in (38.1 mm)

reading this and will oblige ?)  Ho Ho Ho!

Me, I'd settle for a nice Morgan.

Only for you...

sweet.

 

i thought you meant one of these Morgans;

 

Oh,  I think the top speed is about the same ... but no I

did mean the car.  Thanks Susie.
