2. Chrysler Valiant Charger VH
The Chrysler Motor Company wanted to participate in the Australian muscle car class, so in 1971, they introduced the Valiant Charger. Based on the regular Valiant platform but with a sporty new two-door body, the Charger got its name from its American cousin, the Dodge Charger. To be able to keep up with mighty Falcon GTs, Monaros, and Toranos, the Valiant Charger could be had with several performance engines. They including a hot version of Chrysler’s six-cylinder engine featuring new cylinder heads and better intake systems.
In the R/T version, the 4.3-liter six delivered over 240 HP, but the most powerful version was the Charger 770 SE E55. Under the hood was a well-known Mopar 340 V8 with 285 HP and a three-speed automatic. In fact, they commonly installed this engine in the Dodge Challenger and Plymouth Barracuda in America.
