170, 198, 225 how many of each?

Ok, so when people find out I've got a /6 in my car, they almost always say "ah, the ol 225" followed by "ya couldn't kill those things". I don't think the general public was aware of the 170 and198 slants. And yes, my car does have a 225.

I'm not looking for exact figures, but, in general, how many folks stuck with the base /6 vs. optioning up for the 225. and what was the price of admission for the bigger engine. I'm sure way more 225's were made simply because they were in production longer than either smaller one. Just curious.

I worked for a Chrysler-Plymouth dealer from 1964-1966. We were in a hilly part of Connecticut and they always ordered the 225 slant six in Valiants. I had a 63 Valiant with a 170 automatic and it had a lot less power than the 1967 Valiant that replaced it. I now have a 64 Dart 270 convertible with a slant six and Torquflite. It has plenty of soup for an old guy like me! I'm sure the 225 was by far the most popular slant six.
