First Start and Run of Hagerty's Rebuilt Hemi!
Whoo-Hoo!
They got so many requests to hear it run that they made this short video.
Reminds me of when the wife to be was at the drags in Miami with me in the early 60's. They push started Big Daddy in one of the Swamp Rats and it fired up right in front of us. She jumped straight up. High.
I'd like to drop it into something light like a bucket roadster or a Cobra.

ReplyDeleteOh yeah... :-D
ReplyDeleteA boat would be awesome!

ReplyDeleteOh, yeah!
DeleteA top fuel car comes to life with quite a bark!
MAN that takes me back to the good ol' days. I miss that era, when horsepower was the result of mechanical engineering, and not on-board computers.
ReplyDeleteYeah, high compression, good flowing heads, high lift, long duration camshaft, and enough carburetion to feed it all, properly jetted, of course!
