  • My newest purchase? a $18,000 DODGE DEMON! How's it going so far? Really, REALLY BAD...
    WATCH FOR DEMON PARTS GIVEAWAY DETAILS THROUGHOUT THE VIDEO!
    Last episode we tore the drivetrain out of this hellcat Demon and found out the damage was MUCH worse than anticipated. The transmission? Completely destroyed, not a single part to salvage... The chassis? Up for debate (is it though?) The engine? Let's find out today!
    Sitting on top the Mopar pyramid (Hellcats, Scat Packs, 392's... You know it's true) is this 808hp Supercharged Demon engine, it's clearly going to need some work, but will it be a total loss or will there be SOMETHING we can salvage and rebuild!?

    Just a little heads up, when you remove or install the rocker shafts you should do each bolt a little at a time. Start with the middle and alternate to either side of the middle “walking” it on or off. This will help prevent bowing/bending the rocker shaft.

  • @kruxi_cro
    @kruxi_cro Год назад +95

    I think that bolts on blower cover were actually properly torqued down, but since all of that heat destroyed gasket/sealer I would guess that the bolts "lost" their torque and for that reason you feel like they are hand tight.

    • @bigredc222

    Two spark plugs is primarily for emissions purposes, but can help with power slightly. The Semi-hemispherical shape on the modern hemi heads benefit significantly from an increase in flame propagation (combustion speed), which can be accomplished by initiating combustion in two locations. This consistently provides a full burn, which reduces net emissions, and can of course squeeze a bit more power out of the same amount of fuel.
