@@kiltedmoto They were so far ahead of their time with that design . I doubt we will ever know the ACTUAL truth as to why they were abruptly discontinued in 1959 .

Sounds STRONG man , great job !!! Very cool to see early hemi's that are still actually racing ( not just idling ).
Thanks Mike. It’s crazy how this 68 year old motor will spin over 8000 rpm!
