The block is an early 331cui that is bored 0.125 inches by Reath Automotive. The heads are 354 industrial pieces. The valves are original ones, which are actuated by an original Sig Erson top fuel solid lifter cam, which is reground by Clay Smith. Further, the motor runs a stock crank on which Jahns pistons with a 10.5:1 compression are mounted.

The Hemi powerplant was already in it, but it had different exhaust manifolds and only two Stromberg 97's. All that has changed, it now has open headers and runs 6 rebuilt Stromberg 97's on top of a Weiand Drag Star intake manifold. The headers that are mounted now are made by Jimmy, about 3 or 4 years ago he told me.

I think I know this car and the dude driving it. Was built in Savannah, GA and my uncle (through my then step-mother) had it in Charleston, SC or the relevant area, survived a house fire (was in the connected garage) but was sold to build the new house. No idea where it is today if this is the same car, but watching this made me feel like I was punched in the gut, core memory stuff......I wouldn't be surprised if this is that car I grew up near for a few years of my childhood.

Don "Big Daddy" Gartlis blew his Olds engine and took the hemi out of his tow car (a chrysler) and put it in his Swamp Rat front engine dragster and forgot all about running anything else. Early hemis were limited to 30 degrees timing or they would blow. When the 426 was introduced Don pulled the timing to 40 degrees and the rest is history.

@oldmusher15 жыл бұрын
The intake (carbs bolted to it) is called a "log" style manifold. Each side has an open area under the carbs (plenum) and as each cylinder fires it can draw gas/air mixture from the plenum. Not all cylinders fire at once, so the positioning is not as black and white as you imagine. Plus these are relatively small carbs. There are single 4-barrel carbs available that flow more than all 6 of these antique strombergs. Of course, they don't look nearly as scary!

Ol' Betsy was flyin' as Ms. MacAlistair gripped the seat tight, her knuckles as white as her hair. Suddenly we arrived at the doctor's office. I downshifted from 3rd into 2nd, then to first as we pulled into the parking lot. We rolled up to the entrance. "Thank you.." she whispered as she tried to catch her breath,"thank you so much." Beads of sweat were on her forehead and somehow her blouse had come undone." Oh, my Lord!" That was quite a ride.....I feel so, so...DIRRRTY!

"Sweet hot Methuselah, goodness gracious!!" replied old Ms. McAlistair as she got into Betsy, my 31 Ford." I don't remember them looking like this when I was a child." She peered over her bifocals to get a better look." I'll have you there in a jiffy,"I said. I pressed the ignition and the old 392 roared to life."Hang on," I said as I slipped it into 1st and floored it. Betsy screamed as she lurched forward, leaving a trail of burnt rubber behind her. "Oh my Lord!!" Ms. MacAlistair screamed.
