The Chrysler Ace is the same engine as the Dodge and Plymouth Cars.
1947 would be 217CID. NAPA can order most internal parts. Another more reasonable place is Terrill Machine in DeLeon, TX |

Jake,
Go back to NAPA and find the OLDEST person there. The kids won't spend the time to look it up. The ACE was a 217CID till 1954. It's probably the same as yours. |
