Default Bristol's Chrysler Engines

"I can't imagine Bristol offer upgrades and conversions for all
kinds of older models.
This would mean they dismount the engine from your car, and then the
engine is sent to Chrysler and back again?
This really does not sound very realistic to me."

Markus -

I don't think sending the engine to Chrysler is necessary or
feasible. They are relatively simple engines to rebuild or improve,
with many sources of replacement and performance parts (or entire
"crate" engines) from Mopar and others - all the HP you could want
for $7,000 - $9,000, complete, much less for a rebuild. Search the
web for "Mopar crate engines".

I met a Viper engine specialist here who moved back home to Bristol
about 15 months ago. Not sure where he's working now, but I'd bet he
could be turning out stunning engines as a sideline if there's a market.
