question about original parts

[Fabinho8]

Hi
Own a 66 plymouth satellite and wondering the following:

• did they sell / use 1966 also 15" wheels?
• did they had brake master cylinder without mastervac?
• did chrysler use 1966 also Holley Double pumper?

did they sell / use 1966 also 15" wheels?

Yes, Chrysler did on trucks and Chryslers, not on Satellites. All 14's on the B bodies, even the Max Wedge cars built just a little earlier.

did they had brake master cylinder without mastervac?

Yes, single sump master cylinder.

• did chrysler use 1966 also Holley Double pumper?

Not as far as i know... even the Vettes which were just getting those types of Holley carbs were vacuum secondary i do believe in production trim.

Thank you. Do you know where I get documents / copies to proof all that?

The dual master cylinder didn't happen until MY1967 as a result of the FMVSS being applied to all 1967 cars and trucks. (FMVSS = Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, which began for the 1967 model year (MY)). You'll find many older cars retrofitted with a dual master cylinder by owners. Both of my 1966 cars are so modified.

Look at any MY1966 Dodge or Plymouth dealer advertisements, brochures, or factory service manuals; you'll see that NO 15" wheels were offered on MY1966 Dodges or Plymouths. Just on Imperial (standard for 1966) and optional on New Yorker, Newport and 300.

You won't see a Holley double-pumper mentioned at all in any dealer promotional brochures OR factory service manuals for MY1966.

I'm assuming you need the information to pass the mandatory vehicle inspection in Switzerland?
