=== 401 === [[File:Amc401v8-1.jpg|thumb|right|1974 AMC 401]] The {{cvt|401.11|CID|cc|1}}<ref name="amcenginesA"/> produced {{cvt|330|hp|PS kW|0}} gross in 1971 and {{cvt|255|hp|PS kW|0}} net from 1972 through 1975. In 1976 it was rated at {{cvt|215|hp|PS kW|0}}. Like the 390, the 401's crankshaft and connecting rods are forged steel. It was last produced in 1978. The 401 was available in the Javelin, Matador, and Ambassador car lines and in Jeeps from its introduction in 1971 through 1974. In 1975 and 1976, emission controls, insurance rates, and high gasoline prices meant the 401 was available on the large Matador model, and then only for police department orders. Buyers of full-sized Jeeps (Wagoneer, Cherokee, J-10, and J-20) could order a 401 until 1978 (not available in 1979<ref>{{Cite web|url= http://www.lov2xlr8.no/brochures/jeep/79jp/79jp.html|title = Lov2xlr8.no}}</ref>). This engine was also supplied to International Harvester for use as an optional engine in International's [[International Harvester Light Line pickup|Light Line pickup]] trucks and [[International Harvester Travelall|Travelalls]] from late 1973 through 1974 where it was designated 'V-400' to differentiate it from IHC's own V/LV series 401.
