I love it how your show room cars motor are in working order. and looking at the cancer car makes my heart skip a beat
Thanks James, the cancer car has a special meaning to me. Appreciate your comment!
Nothing like a blown HEMI!!!
The 2003 5.7... 345 engine is my favorite. That is the last Hemi that didn't have the troublesome EGR emissions crap on them. Pretty good running cool sounding engine. Very reliable too.
Great bottom end! 2:38
Hey Steve !! Thanks for the walk down memory lane as my Uncle was a MOPAR firm believer as he had a 56 Desoto with a hemi ,then went to Plymouth & ended up with a Dodge with a 440 Hemi !! What a ride with him as always ""HAMMER DOWN"" !! 🤔😗🙃👀👀👍👍👍👍👍
Very cool!
No such thing as a 440 hemi 440's were super commando or magnums and 440+6 or 440 6pac
@@moparcntryYep the 361 383 400 413 426 max wedge and 440 were all wedge engines . A properly tuned 440 could actually beat the 426 Hemi in the 1/4 at times and they stayed in tune better than the Hemi did . Now when you start talking about running nitromethane through a Hemi compared to other engines it's a whole different ball game thanks to Don Garlt's who found out that if you increase the engine timing way further than normal when running nitro they run much better & make huge HP. Indy cylinder head now has some great wedge and Hemi crate engines that make a ton of HP and torque and some if the wedge engines they build are very close to making Hemi power if not more in some applications they build but like anything Mopar related they aren't cheap even though the Chrysler cars & engines have gained more popularity now because people are tired of seeing the common SBC BB chevy and Fords all the time but the prices for the Chrysler stuff never seems to go down much if any after all the years of the aftermarket making speed parts for them especially the Hemi engines. I like them all be it the GM stuff or the Ford stuff & Chrysler stuff and if course the old cars like the Packards and cars like the supercharged Grahams and Cords of the days past that were ahead of the times .
Hemi i like Everything Keith Black 🙏❤😊🇦🇺🔥
Man, those old 392’s are getting hard to find and exxxxpenssssive. ’34 Ford 3 window and 392 would be my goal.
I liked diesel power
Steve, I've successfully repaired several blocks without welding using Iron-tite plugs. They're cast iron so rate of expansion is equal to the block. You drill, tap, lace them in, locking them together the length of the crack. Lots of red loctite and mill or grind flat the next day. A ceramic block sealer in the cooling system and you're good to go. And yes I'm talking about fully built Race Engines. I bet you have friends in the heavy truck biz who know about and have used the plugs to repair a diesel block. Back in the day I used the plugs to fill the holes in the decks on blower Engines to help keep the top of the cylinders round under high boost levels and keep the head gaskets intact.
T.S. RACING
Thanks so much T.S. Racing. Valuable information.
👏👏👏 so good to see a wee video. It's been a while, so much good information and knowledge and one of my favourites. Quit your Bitchin still remember watching you build this. 💯👍🏴
Thanks Steve, learned a few things about the early ones. They all sing that untamed hemi straight flow song of reckless abandon.
I've been saying for sometime Steve, contact AMT, MPC, Monogram models to get your cars into kits, would be thousands of us Motorheads buying them, love this car and your truck, if you do dont forget me Cheers KC 🇦🇺🤝🇺🇸😎👍
Especially the Quit yer bitchin & the Joker cars
Hey Steve, how bout buildin a Freaked out Haunted blown hemi powered 41 willys & call it "Gives Me The Willies" ?
@user-vs2hp2pd1r is absolutely right on the money there I'd buy everyone of them Cheers 🍻 🇦🇺🤝😊👍
@user-vs2hp2pd1r that sounds like and awesome idea 💡 👊🆒️✌️😎🍻🇦🇺
enjoy when you bring out videos I always watch the show in the evening over here in the U.K hope you bring out new ones soon . Hope all you guys are doing well over there in Vegas hope to come visit one day ,🙏🏻👍🏻💯
We are all well, thank you. Come to Vegas and visit Welderup!
that rig is beautiful i dig the door cards and love the old saw blade visor
The cancer car is pure art. Your best work imo.
Thanks much Harman Kardon. All the donations from it is given to the Children's Cancer Center. It was a build made with love and my way to help. Appreciate your comment!
Hi Steve, I will be in Las Vegas in September. I will stop by and see you.
It will be monday through fridave sometime
You have nothing to lose … I’d try to weld that hemi block ….
Thinks chivy is better junk
@@bobsmtih3593Much cheaper to build and more plentiful so for a lot of people that's the way to go to save money and be on the road quicker driving there hot rods . Hemi or any Chrysler engines be it the Hemi the wedge big blocks the small block poly & LA engines are always more expensive to machine & build compared to a Chevrolet or Ford just because the machine shops are already set up & tooled for those engines. Now if it's a Chrysler engine a Cadillac Buick Olds or Pontiac they aren't cheap to build either just because they weren't used as much for racing or did they often times out sell Chevrolet or Ford back in the day & that's why they are so much cheaper to build because when Chevrolet came out with the SBC that basically put the Ford flat head in its grave because every speed part known was developed & tested on the sbc at the time . I have a old hot rod magazine from 1968 and back then you could buy a brand new SBC 2x4 tunnel ram intake for 99.00 delivered to your door back then which for some with the pay scale back then that was a lot of money but the SBC was always the cheapest to build for years until these new GM LS engines came about that don't cost that much for a good used engine but can make huge power for cheap . I'm actually more of a Chrysler guy but like them all but I admit that they Chrysler cars are always much more expensive to build and restore than the Chevrolet or Ford's are in most instances but like anything you got to pay to play .
Nice! Early hemis are the pinnacle of hot rod cool. The slickest trick build with factory parts is a '55 331 block and heads with a 392 crank. You can get 392 cubes with the best factory head casting and weigh 30-50 pounds less than the tall deck 392. Lock-N-Stitch sells high quality metal stitching pins for cold stitching cracked blocks, might be worth it since no one seems to be producing an early hemi wet block.
Thanks, I appreciate the info!
Thanks Steve. This was interesting.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
what i appreciate the most mate is your knowledge off the top of ya head ,only get that from messing with them for years aye bloody awesome vid steve hope you and the family are well goodonya cheers
Much appreciated tazy T, and cheers to you.
Old school kool Steve,loved the Australian valiant with the 318 v8
Hemi.Friday night drags,good memories.
😎👍🍺🇦🇺
Great history on Hemi's. Have you ever done a detailed video of your bat mobile? I remember the one with your grandson. Would be neat to get the story on it and what you did to it. Keep up the great work!
The Bat Mobile belongs to the car museum here in Las Vegas. It is one of the 12 cars used in the movie. After using it in Vegas Ratrods episode with the Joker car, the museum left it with me to display both cars together here in my showroom. Thanks for watching!
Did you know that the grandfather of all Chrysler hemi engines was the XI-2220 V-16 aircraft engine that Chrysler developed for the Republic XP-48 fighter?
This is valuable information, Thanks!
Steve ur hot rod truck in beginning of video is sick amazing luv those huge meats in rear also thanks about history lesson on those 50s & early 60s Mopar powerplants.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
Hello Steve, nothing better then a HEMI 💪
❤BEAUTIFUL WORK ❤ GOD BLESS YOU AND PROTECT YOU GREATLY. GREETINGS FROM CHICAGO IL 🙏
Thank you very much! Appreciate it!
Super cool! Hemi’s are the best!
Thanks for a great video. Being a motorcycle guy. The hemi Triumph & BSA 650s have always sounded very good. Not to mention the hemi ironhead sportster’s! Smitty in Vegas
Very cool Steve! Always cool to see your new videos and the cars in your showroom. We’ve been to your shop 6-7 times and will be there every time we come to Vegas!
I’d love to see a final video on your COE build. Absolutely love that truck!
Hi Aaron, The COE has been delivered to the owner and is no longer in the shop. It was such a blast putting it together. Sure appreciate you coming in.
That exhaust will definitely apply some leg tats.
You're a Cool dude! Met ya at a show in Arkansas. Nice guy😎👍
Thanks Ronald, I had a great time there!
Braze,or silver solder it in some cool kinda way. I love seeing those type of repairs. I'm an old dirt track guy, and in the lower classes in my day there was a lot of that type of work out there. It would fit the rat rod thing perfectly.
What a great looking truck 👍👍
Don garlits got 3000 + hp out of 392 hemis in the mid 70's
i am on the fence about HP and speed because to me it's more about cool looking and it's pretty hard to beat a flat head V8 as far as cool goes but then again all Hot Rods are cool
Thanks for sharing this sweet truck with us dance always do a badass job I know but probably wearing them out cuz I'm driving a s*** out of them
You been over for the manx racing Steve..? Aw the best guys.. 🤔👋
Munch guys ? drive.google.com/file/d/1GXm7S6mbfZvWqBkYlp7sY1kHAaNql-ne/view?usp=drivesdk
From tv to yt i love steve, have you had a op on your left knee at some point? Looks like a decent scar there, big respect
Yes I did. Messed up my knee on an ATV in the sand dunes.
Want to know more about the quarter scale rat rod in the background, Steve!!
I hope to do a video on all the rats in my showroom. Coming soon! Thanks for watching.
Those gear drives sure do love to make noise, but it's definitely a good noise added with a blower it's a fantastic combo
Yes it is! Thanks for watching.
Very cool 🤙 I just acquired 2 354's yesterday
U"R The Mann Brother ML&R💪🏻💪🏻💚🤟🏻🤟🏻
Good video Steve
Look into block filler.
I've read the block doesn't really need much water.
The HEADS DO....
Check with manufactures of the product.
Thanks Tom, will do!
Yup, i like hemi power! Love the noise. Will be back for an earful! (Sema)
The 54 and 55 331 blocks don't have that integral cast bellhousing ( if it wasn't mentioned ). The 55 331 heads are considered to be the best , the Hot Heads aluminum are based on 55 331 .
These engines lost their purpose as gasoline quality improved . The original design ( FirePower passenger car engine ) was based on available fuel in 1949 which was about 62 octane ( remember Phillips 66 gas stations , the 66 in the name is for the octane rating of their fuel when they named the brand ).
Even with all of their " flaws " the early Chrysler FirePower is my favorite engine series. Every piece in these engines is " ideal " ... simple common sense engineering.
Thanks for the info! appreciate you following along.
It's good to see you " Dude"! The Content is always Great! Steve maybe you can tell me if this a ( True or Bullshit)? I was talked out of pursuing a Carreer in Welding about 40 years ago and they were saying, you will ( Go Blind) eventually from the Trade! Thanks Dean( Soul) Toronto
If you use the proper PPE you’ll be ok, unfortunately when a welder gets in a hurry often times they’ll tack things without a hood.. which isn’t good and can burn your eyes.. called flash burn. It heals but is incredibly uncomfortable.. doing this too often can absolutely have long term effects..
I agree with gsl6888. Never go without a hood. Thanks for watching!
426 Hemi was rated at 425hp but were constantly dynoed over 500hp by the racers back then before they started whatever build they were going through
Thanks Kenny, good info.
Hey what’s up bro how are you
Hi Steve I was at your shop about two weeks ago bought a lotta merch you were not there what are these days I would like to meet you in person you have a good day brother welder up get her done
Thanks for coming in Danny, I appreciate your shopping with us. I am in most days but I am often gone on weekends for appearances. Come to Vegas for the Rat Rod Rukus and visit my open house. I will be there. It would be nice to meet you.
Maybe the block had straight water in the Hemi and froze the water and cracked it. Did not know these Hemi’s had that huge bell housing within the block.
I saw you were buying blowers from I think his name is Monte who owns Mad Dog Blowers in Fontana.
I watched the episode when you built the rose rat rod for the cancer kid! I thought that was built for him or at least that's what they made us believe?
Hi Timothy, After building the Cancer car we sold it at auction to help this family. The buyer donated it back to us. It sits at the front of my showroom. Our visitors throw money inside and that money goes to the children's cancer centers.
That's a great story and an awesome use of the cancer car! Thank you for answering that question. Thanks for sharing
