      It's a shame the Galaxie didn't have the factory 3 speed on the floor. The three speed back in the day was actually faster than the 4 speed. A 3 speed on the column was faster than the 4 speed also. If the car would have had the C-6 autoshifter it would have been faster still. The four speed in those cars was a real nice thing to have and it made the car nice to drive in town but it wasn't that great for racing. It's a shame they put the 360 in the little Mopar because it was a real plug to begin with. The 360 could put out some pretty good power but it needed a good carb that was a big CFM in order to push enough air into it's throat, then with factory headers and a little bit better cam they were a real torque monster and could run with the old 383s. I had a 360 in a Plymouth Trailduster that I built and it really would run nice. It had the posi rear and it was built like I explained above. I used it for the swamp and woods a lot. I once pulled out a pretty large tractor that was bogged down to the axle with that Trailduster. It had gobs of power and torque running through the 3 speed torqueflite tranny. The downside was that it got 10 miles per gallon no matter whether you babied it or ran at 80 mph-still 10 mpg no matter what you did. That is why I didn't keep it. I washed it then took an entire bottle of Armor All and it shined like a new penny, Brought it to the auction in Houston and sold it for $600 more than I paid for it to some Mexicans that took it back to Mexico.

    The exhaust stacks were less restrictive as trucks enjoyed more lenient emissions standards at the time. Which helped make Li'l Red the fastest accelerating American production vehicle for 1979. Possibly true for '78 as well.

    • @74beeper97
      @74beeper97 3 года назад +3

      Correct… It’s was the other way around though. Fastest production vehicle of 78 and possibly 79. The government caught up with them and they required catalytic converters in 79

      @@74beeper97 Thanks, I knew I was on the right, er, "track" more or less. Haven't read up on the trivia in a while. I know they had the Trans Am and Corvette licked in acceleration for 1978. An interesting and lesser-known counterpart to the Warlock and Li'l Red was the Midnite Express which was black. Only ever seen one, at Lebanon Valley Dragway in NY. May have been genuine or a home-brew tribute but was cool to see in person either way as they're not well-known to most. I've heard the Midnites came with 400 power but a few 440s were rumored. What info you do find on them seems to vary a bit depending on source. : )

Certain dealers were allowed to take a black, 440 powered 2WD, D150 stepside and add the stacks, stickers and wood. That being said, since dealers did whatever they wanted to back then, there were several put together with 318's and 360's.

    A Chrysler-loving friend of ours owned one briefly back in the 90s, I did get a few rides in it. There was one sitting for years in an empty vacant yard around the corner from my house, then the parcel sold and they built a house there so I hope she wasn't junked although it may have been. There was another sitting by someone's house in the next town over from mine; the guy always had Mopars languishing around in various states of condition. Challengers, Chargers, etc. No idea whatever became of any of those. Then there was a Hispanic guy in my neighborhood using a rusted-out Warlock as a work truck into the early 2000s! It was light green. No idea what was in it but some of them boasted the 400 or 440. I doubt the guy had any idea what he had; he probably bought it as a cheap used truck and drove it until it crumbled to dust.

    A couple of beautiful vehicles right there. The lines on a 65 Galaxy are just gorgeous. And the Little Red Express was a definite hot rod in 1979. Ford's hottest engine offering in the Mustang was only 140hp and just had a 2bbl. The Z28 was under 200hp and even though the Trans Am had a 400/4 speed option that was 220hp the weak 185hp 403 was the most common engine in those cars and most had a 2.56 rear gear so they ran the quarter mile as long as it took for the earth to orbit the sun!

    A 4 speed in a full sized Galaxie has got to be just as rare as a Lil Red Express! Even still, I was damned impressed how the driver of the truck consistently shaved big numbers off his times. That proves the power is there, and technique is all that's needed. With some more track time and some fine tuning, I bet he breaks into the high 14s. Those E58 L code 360s ran really good for their time. Side note, they used a revised 340 cam which some called the 252 cam, and later, Mopar Performance ungraded that to the .430 Purple Shaft cam, which is excellent for heavy car/trucks with a mild stall, low compression and power accessories.

    Ok the production Lil Red's did not have the 340 cam or the 850 cfm carb. Them were used in the testing as well as using the W2 heads. None of these heads to the best of their knowledge ever made it out in production. It did have a factory double roller timing chain. The '78 was a tad more wild. The '79 heads had the rotator valves, but no emission holes in the heads or the exhaust headers. I own a '79 and it has been verified by the Chrysler Historical Society.

    You forgot the 79 Trans Am 400- 4 speed with an actual 260net HP and 320 lb of torque good for 15.3 in the quarter mile. Pontiac started the muscle car craze and they ended it.

    To me it's just sad to see how slow these things are especially that Galaxy you would think that thing would do at least an 11 second quarter mile I guess not and a little truck had a little bit of power not much typical 70s la bambas oh whatever happened to the '60s 454 427 or 428 s 396s 340s 4:40s 426 hemmes and so many more thanks for the video bro cool.

    The Galaxie looks like an unmarked police car. I can picture a couple of detectives in fedoras sitting up front smoking cigarettes after busting one of those damn hippies for dealing the dope.

    Great matchup!? Lol jk! Love both cars! I thought the galaxie would have this one, but I should have known to never underestimate Mopar power lol! still both great cars, just a little surprised seeing the epic lil red Express keep up with that awesome galaxie! Thanks for another awesome video! P.s. keep that commentary and fart jokes coming! That makes the video all the better lol! 👊😁

    Well, that's unusual. But I think the Ford will win.

    I always thought that the Express trucks of the late 70's deserved a really nice engine , like an early hemi would be perfect in these. Whether or not it would win against the Ford , it would still be cooler either way !!!

    Flip the breather upside down, remove the spare tire and tailgate, take a leak, then run her again 😂

    Not a bad showing for the Galaxy. A 390 4 spd up against a 360 auto, ok. Well Own a '79 Lil Red and that damn truck would pass anything but a gas pump.

    1978 LiL Red was a lot quicker!!!! I drove 5 stock 78&79's when they were not that old! And the 78 won all the time,no matter what 78 we took out..

    Slow but close and that makes it exciting. Also the only acceptable pick-up truck to have diesel stacks.All others are just wrong...

    The 79 LRE was a slug compared to the 78. The 78 had hi flow heads and cam...with no cats.

    Always wanted a black warlock neat looking truck. I was all of about 10 when they came out
    3800 lbs aint bad for a truck...newer camaros stangs challengers weigh how much now?

    It's really too bad the Dodge boys didn't try the whole muscle truck thing when they could have dumped a Hemi or 440 under the hood. Those were such sweet trucks, and if they weren't so rare I'd be all over it with a Gen 3 Hemi swap

    • @Welcometofacsistube
      @Welcometofacsistube 3 года назад

      They did put 440's in those trucks

    • @ChrisTheBmxGuy

      I know for sure the warlocks commonly had 440s. Not sure if the lil reds had that as an option but it wouldn't surprise me.
