426 Hemi engine build
Thought some of you might be interested in this. I work a lot with a local performance engine builder, KT Engine Development, in North Carolina. Recently, they put together a classic 426 Hemi that will be going into a restored Cuda.
I videotaped the assembly and two of three videos done. The first is a new rotating assembly and the second is on installing the big hemi heads and the valvetrain. The engine turned out to be worth 550 horsepower and 516 lb/ft of torque with a pump gas friendly 10:1 compression ratio. Anyway, if this is interesting to anyone, I've included the link: www.HorsepowerMonster.com http://i1148.photobucket.com/albums/.../th_Hemi03.jpg http://i1148.photobucket.com/albums/.../th_Hemi04.jpg http://i1148.photobucket.com/albums/...Valvetrain.jpg Thanks! |
Looks cool but I would read the rules on posting. I don't think the link to your own website in your signature is acceptable. Rule number 6.
6. No promotions of other related sites. There is no problem with occasionally using the name of other sites or even posting a link to a pertinent thread from another site, but repeatedly referring to other related sites is considered "SPAM" and is not allowed. Please have the decency of NOT putting links to them in your signature, profile or have a post, PM or Chat telling our members to come over to another related site. Such activity is ground for removal from signature, and repeated offenses are grounds for being banned. |
Sorry, deleted it from my signature.

What are the mods that are helping them create that kind of power?
|
The main one is a new solid flat tappet cam from Comp Cams. They are also using a new Edelbrock intake manifold and dual Edelbrock quads. Although it won't make a big difference on the dyno, the Eagle Rods and Diamond pistons, while nothing too fancy, are a lot lighter than the original stock parts.

THERE YOU GO. IN SEARCH OF "200 MILES PER HOUR" MY AZZ WAT A JOKE :)check out my post "check out line":laugh::laugh: and you'll get the joke |

I must have missed something. Who's in search of 200 miles per hour?

It was in reference to the New Mustang. We already Know the Superbird can do it and that was 30+ years ago
|
This is the best engine for me! As of this month, Mopar has been producing components for Chrysler LLC for 75 years. The company is often associated with muscle vehicles and Hemi engines is getting stronger up to this year.

Great!
