1963 426 Max Wedge Plymouth Savoy
  On June 1, 1963 Chrysler released it's new 426 CI Max Wedge due to a rule change by both the NHRA and NASCAR raising the cubic inch limit to 427. The 426 Max Wedge option was a complete package which consisted of either the 415 HP (11:1 Compression) or the 425 HP (13.5:1 Compression), HD 3 Speed Torqueflite Auto Trans and 3.91 gears in a Sure-Grip HD rear. Other standard features were a dual point distributor, "Laker" exhaust cutouts, 10" drum brakes and deep groove pulleys. These cars were very capable of hitting high 12s with open exhaust and a set of slicks. The 415 HP model could be driven on the street (with limited success due to the cross-ram intake manifold which was designed to work at 4000+ RPM) using Sunoco 260 but the 425 HP version required racing fuel (110+ octane) Due to the late introduction date, only 18 426/415 HP Max Wedge Auto Trans Plymouth Savoys were produced. It may look like a "big car" but it isn't. With the setup you see, it weighs about 3350 lbs.
