    they are a great motor but i dissagree with the whole 265 HEMI thing they are far from. they are a ealry chrysler valliant engine over here in Australia. made some good power for there time and gave the v8s something to be worried about.
    while you are google'erising look up a australian charger probably the best car with the 265

    sorry I m not a mopar guy I thought that like the slant 6 that this was a U.S. sourced engine It came in a lot of our chrysler products.Chargers valiants centuras etc It was areal good engine check out aussie valiant chargers they were coolcars not really related to your chargers

    The original design was from the US, and it was rejected in favor of the small V8 in trucks. The redesign to make the engine reliable and maximize its output was all engineered in Australia.
    Sometimes I think we missed a pretty good bet. The slant six is great, and I love it, but it is strongly cubic inch and rpm limited.

    they came first in a 245 ci then went up to 265 ci A couple of mistakes by chrysler Australia prevented them from winning some big races here ...A big branch intake that starved on hard cornering and a three speed gearbox that hurt top end our E49c aussie valiant chargers were quicker down the quarter than our 351 powered GTHO falcon which was the quickest 4 door car in the world at that time

    I wish they would make an aluminum head for the slant six. I dont know how the aussie 6 got the hemi name, it has wedge head like a big block chevy and flat top pistons.

    I dunno, what could be done as an improvement? It's already a 12-port. I guess a for-real hemi combustion chamber would be worthwhile, but it's still hard to squeak more than 240 ci. out of the slant.

    On the other hand, I've never seen a better potential for supercharging or turbocharging. They even left extra room for the blower on the righthand side!

    Only the block was aluminum. All production heads were cast iron with the exception of a few prototypes that were aluminum.
