The 304 has a displacement of {{cvt|304|CID|L|1}}, which produced {{cvt|210|hp|kW PS|0}}(gross rating) in 1970-71 and was built starting in 1970.<ref name="amcenginesA">{{cite web |url= http://www.matadorcoupe.com/images/engineappchart.jpg |title=Engine application chart |publisher=matadorcoupe.com |access-date=20 August 2014}}</ref> Output declined yearly thereafter, initially due a shift from SAE Gross to SAE Net horsepower. 1972-75 models were rated at {{cvt|150|hp|kW PS|0}} (net rating from 1972 onwards). It was rated at {{cvt|130.5|hp|kW PS|0}} in 1978, and {{cvt|125|hp|kW PS|0}} in 1979, the last year it was installed in passenger cars, and in 1980–81, the last years it was used in Jeep vehicles. The [[International Harvester Corporation]] {{convert|304|CID|L|1|adj=on}} SV "Comanche" V8 engines are sometimes mistaken for the AMC 304, however, the IHC V8 engine family has no relation to the AMC V8 and was in fact first produced in 1959, 11 years prior to the AMC designed 304. The similarity in displacement is purely a coincidence.
