The system, designed by Bendix was way ahead of its time and it was basically a disaster. The few people who bought it, 35 Chrysler 300D models were sold with the unit installed, all had them swapped out for carbs by the time it was done. There is literally a handful of cars in the world left running with this fuel injection system on it and as best we know, less five are hemi powered Chryslers. The system was also offered on wedge engines like the 361 in DeSoto Adventurer.

----Our very own Chris White's Dad knows more about these rare beasts than probably anyone on earth. Chris will correct me if I'm wrong but I believe his Dad has made these semi-flawed systems function completely correctly. All that and his Dad is an absolute treasure. When you get to know Chris and just what a nice guy he is, transfer that to his Dad and you will know exactly what his Dad is like........Bill S
