IBRARY’s comprehensive illustrated booklet on obtaining the best speed & performance from your 1955-66 Plymouth, 1955-58 Chrysler, 1955-58 DeSoto, or 1955-66 Dodge semi-hemi polyspheric or “poly” wide-block motor. Your “obsolete” poly is capable of surprising speed & power, without loss of reliability. It’s the most complete do-it-yourself literature you can buy to get the most from your poly motor. Before making any decisions about modifying (or even rebuilding) your motor, get the best help available, and do it right the first time.
    This is not a repair manual or another re-print of the firing order, serial numbers, casting numbers, rated power, compression ratio, etc. It contains only information that is useful and relevant (no pictures of chrome accessories). My purpose is explore, explain and detail modification, fine tuning, improvements and modernization. Use it with your service manual for best results. Not an expert mechanic? You’ll still find many improvements you can make yourself with common hand tools.
    I guarantee that you’ll find information in this booklet you’ve never seen before, and which will help you plan and complete your project.
    Consider this: if this booklet saves you from making even a single mistake or bad purchase, or gives you one new idea, doesn’t that make this purchase worth while? The price is a very small fraction of what you’ll invest in the motor - plan it more intelligently, and get better results.
