There is already a thread for the C-300 or 300A, but this one is better.
As usual for american cars, more displacement equals more better.
23 cubic inches of better to be exact.
As you might already have guessed, the 300B was fitted with a 354ci FirePower Hemi V8 instead
of the 331ci from the previous year. Horsepower rose from 300hp to 355hp, making it the first american V8 to be rated at 1hp per cubic inch. With a Torqueflite AT or 3-speed MT, top Speed was now in the 140mph region.
2nd most importantly, the rear end was redesigned.
1102 of them were produced.
