Re: Off Topic Question on 1972 Rallye Charger 440

[Stevan Miner <miner@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Lyle,
Chrysler installed air pumps on some of their engines for emission control 
issues. Basically the air pump is used to inject air into the combustion 
chamber to help the combustion burn process and thus lower emissions, it 
also helps cool the combustion chamber so that a leaner (better mileage) air 
/fuel mixture could be used. There were  a lot of them removed back then and 
it's hard to find the right stuff when restoring a car back to original.
