These engines were based on the Hemi engines, using the same blocks and crankshaft parts, but completely different cylinder heads, pushrods, exhaust manifolds and pistons. They were called Polyspheric or Poly engines, because they featured polyspherical-shaped (meaning “more than one sphere”) combustion chambers. These combustion chambers were formed by the two shallow concave domes where the intake and exhaust valve seats were. Because these engines needed a less sophisticated rocker setup, with only a single rocker shaft in each head, they were also cheaper and lighter than their Hemi counterparts. In the Chrysler literature, the Poly engines were also called single rocker shaft (SRS), while the Hemi engines were called dual rocker shaft (DRS). These engines replaced Chrysler's flathead inline six in the division's lower-priced cars, but were slowly replaced by the Chrysler A engine, beginning in mid-1956. Dodge and PlymouthDodge and Plymouth both offered Poly versions of Dodge's Hemi engine. The Dodge versions were marketed as Red Ram or Super Red Ram (internal code A388). 241The 241 ({{convert|241|cuin|L|abbr=on}}) was Plymouth's Poly version of the Dodge's 241 Hemi for 1955. Bore and stroke were the same at {{convert|3.4375|in|mm|abbr=on}} by {{convert|3.25|in|mm|1|abbr=on}}, respectively. 260The 260 (also known as 259) ({{convert|259|cuin|L|abbr=on}}) was introduced in the middle of 1955 by Plymouth. It was a bored-out 241, having a {{convert|3.5625|in|mm|abbr=on}} bore and a {{convert|3.25|in|mm|1|abbr=on}} stroke. 270The 270 ({{convert|268|cuin|L|abbr=on}}) was offered in both Plymouths and Dodges. Like its predecessors, it was a Poly version of Dodge's 270 Hemi. Bore and stoke were the same at {{convert|3.625|in|mm|abbr=on}} by {{convert|3.25|in|mm|1|abbr=on}}, respectively. 315The 315 ({{convert|314|cuin|L|abbr=on}}) was a Poly version of Dodge's high-deck 315 Hemi. Bore and stoke were the same at {{convert|3.625|in|mm|abbr=on}} by {{convert|3.8|in|mm|1|abbr=on}}, respectively. Only used on 1956 Dodge. 325The 325 ({{convert|325|cuin|L|abbr=on}}) was a Poly version of Dodge's largest high-deck 325 Hemi. Bore and stoke were the same at {{convert|3.6875|in|mm|abbr=on}} by {{convert|3.8|in|mm|1|abbr=on}}, respectively. ChryslerThe Spitfire engines were Poly variants of Chrysler's FirePower (Hemi) engine. Chrysler built three Spitfire engines: the 331 Poly, 354 Poly, and the all-new 301 Poly, which did not have a Hemi version. They were introduced for 1955 in the low-priced Chrysler Saratoga and Windsor models and were used through 1958. All Chrysler Spitfire engines were low deck; no Poly version of the raised deck 392 Hemi engine was produced. 301The 301 ({{convert|299|cuin|L|abbr=on}}) was Chrysler's smallest Poly engine. Having a {{convert|3.625|in|mm|abbr=on}} bore and a {{convert|3.625|in|mm|abbr=on}} stroke. 331The 331 ({{convert|331|cuin|L|abbr=on}}) was a Poly version of Chrysler's 331 Hemi. Bore and stoke were the same at {{convert|3.8125|in|mm|abbr=on}} by {{convert|3.625|in|mm|abbr=on}}, respectively. 354The 354 ({{convert|353|cuin|L|abbr=on}}) was a Poly version of Chrysler's 354 Hemi. Bore and stoke were the same at {{convert|3.9375|in|mm|abbr=on}} by {{convert|3.625|in|mm|abbr=on}}, respectively. The 1958 Chrysler Saratoga with four-barrel carberutor (58S) was the most powerful at {{convert|310|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}}. References 2 : Chrysler engines|V8 engines |
