Chrysler Fury 220Hp

Would anyone have an idea where I could get parts for this motor? it's circa 1964/5 I am looking to do a nut and bolt restoration.

I think the "nuts and bolts" will be the easy part to find.

Looks like a polysphere 318. Had one in a an ancient sport fisherman I had years ago and the engine that was in my parents 66 Dodge.

Try a search for "polysphere marine engine" and/or "Dodge 318 polysphere." There is a lot of info about them and parts seem to be readily available in the USA.

I remember the day well. I was aboard your 24 with Tony Hamilton driving watching you and Mike in the cat.

Some polysphere history along with some possibly useful links......
