Someone should hire you and pay you a lot of money to do these videos. Just a fantastic job as always.
You are too kind, my friend!
@@TheGearheadLounge he
I agree with the fantastic video
Right on, this kind of dedication should be retributed with our love as car lovers and let's hope someone notices this passionate fellow. Keep up the good work my man ! From France with love !
Outstanding documentary on the 2nd gen Hemi, looking forward to the 3rd gen history...keep up the great work. 👍👍
Thank you so much!
I've never heard of the ball stud hemi. Wow
Amazing video on the history of the Gen 2 Hemi! I love how you included the ball stud hemi and the DOHC one too!
Thank you so much!
The Gen II Hemi V8 is one badass V8 of the 60s.
I agree!
That are still bad ass
@CudaBarr-mt2kj Yep you got it brother
Thanks for another great video brother. I am not sure why I missed this but I finally made it.
I honestly can not explain my love and connection to Mopar and the Hemi.
I have owned a few, many I wish I had kept. In the late 70s and early 80s big block cars were cheap and plentiful.
Thank you for this history lesson. So much of this was never really talked about unless you were, in the know.
I have a old advertisement that I have framed in my shop.
We want to thank Ford and Chevy for using the HEMI in their Top Fuel and Funny Cars.
Anybody can build a fiberglass body but only Chrysler can build the legendary HEMI engine.
Thanks again for another fantastic video.
Very well done sir.
Thank you for taking the time to watch my video! I appreciate your kind words!
This is the best. Again you didn't disappoint. Job well done 👏. And I'm looking forward to the next episode of the hemi.
Thank you so much! Yeah, with work and family stuff, it was a push! But my goal for the Gen III video is Christmas, ao I'm going to really grind!
@@TheGearheadLounge One more thing I love the little memes that you use in making this like from Batman looney tunes it's funny 😁
Great vid, Ty. Love hearing about the Hemi. Brilliant intro, simply brilliant (everyone hears/feels a Hemi)!! Man, you have some fine footage of the Wing Cars. My dad had a Sublime Bird (440 Mag, pistol grip) in the 70s; it was blindingly fast. (Above 150 mph is a different, rarified, world. I met Garlits and Ronnie Sox in the pit, as a kid, in 1970. Talk about Star Struck...still am.) Thanks for bringing back the memories. Looking forward to Hemi part III. Mopar or No car!!
Thank you so much!
Can't wait for the next one! Great job sir!
Thank you! I'm already working on the third installment!
THANK YOU SO MUCH. TOTALLY AWSOME VIDEO!!!! I; LOVE THE HEMI THEN, AND I LOVE IT NOW!!!
Very informative.
Thank you 😊
Thank you so much!
There is so much I want to geek out on about this, thanks for making this video. A little known 426 Hemi fact, Chrysler flew in famous cylinder head expert Harry Weslake from England to revise the Gen II Hemi heads during initial design and development.
Wow! Thanks for that jewel of info! I love it!
Your videos are really well done and very informative and I might add they are very professionally done which is outstanding compared to most of the other videos that are out there God bless you brother
I appreciate that! Thank you so much!
Really enjoyed your videos on the hemi. Thanks for producing them and I really look forward to a video on the new hemis. My only disappointment was that I would have liked to see a minute or two on the Australian straight six hemis.
You are a Great Man&Thank You!! This made my day!!
Thank you so much!
Awesome video. It was cool strolling down memory lane... I'm one of the lucky few.. I own a 1970 Hemi GTX, one of 76 produced by Plymouth that year.
That’s awesome! Thanks for watching! A ‘70 GTX was a nice year!
Nailed man I've watched this 15 times can't get enough of the hemi
Thank you!
You explain things very well. I learned a lot about the 426 Hemi that I never knew before. Thanks man.
Thank you for watching! I appreciate the kudos! I learned a ton writing it!
An all Mopar drag racing documentary called MR. 4 SPEED. It's probably the best documentary on the cars of Mopar drag racing from the very beginning showcased by Sox and Martin driver Herb McCandless. I've seen it 20x, at least. Its a must see for Chrysler drag fans. It's a 3 part series. 👍👍👍👍
Thanks!
THE HEMI ENGINEERS Part 1 & 2 is a must see. It's the development story of the Gen 2 for Daytona.
Thanks! I'll check it out!
If you can't beat 'em outlaw 'em.
Thanks for your video's!
Thank you for watching!
Well done my friend. Excellent video.
Thank you so much!
Every time I see images and hear stories from early Nascar I get the feeling rules killed development, and fun.
Fun story, my grandpa ordered a 67 coronet with the street Hemi but the car never made it to him since it was "damaged at the factory", the dealer offered a replacement fully loaded Coro 500 they had in stock, not a Hemi so my grandpa being a gentleman didn't say no & gave it to my grandma, he got a mustang instead. Not much later he learned the son of the dealer kept it for himself...
😲😲 Thanks for the story!
@@TheGearheadLounge after the bone stock Mustang he got into alfas (two spiders he raced on the weekends until he crashed in 1972) and even weirder sports cars, he had a Citroen SM, notably, he was one of the first Canadian/Vermonter (he was living on both sides) to get a Subaru SVX outside of Suby staff, he was very proud about owning the latest and greatest. He was an avid speed fan, was LT colonel in the Canadian Air force reserve until the 1990's just for the thrills, he passed away in 2008 having just ordered a Skyline GTR but he never got to drive it...
Last car he drove was his beloved 350z manual even if it hurt his back like crazy 😂 sad he never got to see stuff like the Hellcat, Mustang GT350 and the new mid engined Z06 vette he would have loved the rebirth of speed...
Awesome 👍 job tips and Videos guys 😎
Thank you so much!
Thanks for this incredibly* informative series on the Chrysler Gen 2 Hemi. Thoroughly enjoyed the Gen 1 AND the cars!
Looking forward to the Gen 3
*understated complement as other YT seem dry, almost boring by comparison. Keep ‘em coming 😊
Thanks! Glad you liked it! Here's the link to the Gen 3 video, in case you couldn't find it! ruclips.net/video/JwugQxPzLlY/видео.html
The Hemi, 427 SOHC, and the Boss 429 are the most visually wicked motors to ever come out of Detroit.
Amen to that!
This isn't my 1st comment, but I thought \\\\i would let you knpow I really love your channel. I think that your channel rocks. Cheers from The Great White North, Calgary Alberta, Just north of Montana(some call it Texas of Canada.)' Keep up the the great contentand I'll keep watchinhg. Cheers my friend.
Thank you so much for the awesome and encouraging comments! I really appreciate it! Cheers to you as well!
Excellent job
Thank you so much!
Really enjoyed, GREAT video!!!!!!! 👍👍👍👍
Thank you! Much appreciated!
@@TheGearheadLounge 👍👍
Oh boy,.... that sounds like a MoparOrNoCar Muscle 💪 Beast 🤙
You have the voice of a professional, rush Limbaugh would say. He’s got some pipes! Anyways your narration is good enough to make money at it.
Thank you so much! I appreciate that!
The 1968 LO 23 and Hurst B 29 Darts were story of thier own. They were well known to be faster than a Turbo Porsche. Also, The darys were furnished to buyers WITHOUT a VIN #
so that you could not register the car for street use. HAHA, Everyone simply found a cheap or wrecked dart and used that VIN Plate.😅 But those HEMI darts were absolutely
10 second machines. 9 sec. if you super charged.....
Great video brother
Thank you so much!
Great vids!👍😎
Thank you!
The 427 SOHC is the most exotic V-8 race engine ever put on the street.
24:00 It's unbelievable that those are what were rolling off the assembly line. I'd take that over a 71 Cuda.
Another excellent production! Your research is exceptional, and you are a natural story teller. Regardiing OEMs sandbagging their advertised horsepower ratings on some muscle car engines for insurance or other reasons... A reference to check out. Nick's Garage is a RUclips channel run by a baby boomer hot rodder who operates a great shop in Montreal. He has a nice Superflow engine dyno and builds mostly Mopar resto engines. Watch his episode called "The Keeper". He built a stock spec .030" over 426 street Hemi... on the dyno it delivered as advertised 425 HP at 5000 rpm (give or take a percent). What Chrysler did NOT advertise... that stock Hemi produces ~500 HP at 6000 rpm! You will enjoy watching it.
Thank you so much! I will definitely check it out! I've seen his channel before!
The first Muscle Car the "1954 Chrysler 300c Model! The " C" stood for Race Car Driver Cunningham, who won many Races with Chrysler's 300's 331-HEMI powered Engines! However, in 1954 Chrysler Invented The First Muscle Car the 354 Chrysler HEMI 300c Model with Horsepower per Cubic Displacement making "The Chrysler 300c not only The First Muscle Car, but the HEMI Engine to Produce Horsepower over Engine Size! Also, the Badging on the 1954 Chrysler 300c shows a Checkered Racing Squares in the front Grille & Checkered Racing Flags on Driver & Passenger front fenders proving that Chrysler Engineered this Car for Racing as a Muscular Car! An American Family 2-Door Meant to kick____ and take Names! Go MOPAR!
@25:37 from near the rear of the carb base what do those two chrome pipes do?
@38:33 on the intake manifold, what is that belt/sprocket driven thing?
Hey! Thanks for watching! @25:37 are heat riser tubes. They connect to the exhaust manifolds, but not the exhaust itself. They carry heat from the exhaust up to the intake manifold to help warm the engine up faster from a cold start.
@38:33 is an electric motor to drive the water pump. This is done on many engine dynos and race cars to eliminate parasitic loss from the crankshaft driving the water pump. This helps increase horsepower numbers.
Thanks!
Thank you again!!
Well spoken and good humor. I'm in.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you!
@@TheGearheadLounge I'm Betting MotorTrend is looking real hard, your THAT good.
@@LaPabst Wow...THANK YOU! That's very high praise! I appreciate it!
@@TheGearheadLounge Gig deep, AMC is underlooked. So is Saab and Audi..
@@LaPabst Most definitely! I'll put them on the list!
Would be nice if Graveyard Carz would do an LO23 Hemi Dart instead of 71 Hemi Cudas. Maybe a 69 1/2 A12 Roadrunner. No question, the 71 Cuda is the 59 Les Paul for Mopar, but the factory drag cars are incredibly desireable. I would prefer a streetable clone.
That looks exactly like Garrets engine. 👍
HEMI RULES
Nice Video.
Thank you!
The bit about a 440 whipping a Street Hemi car is a down right Stupid & Misleading statement.....As a car crazy '60's teenager reading all the monthly "Car & Driver" & other news stand hot rod magazines, I noticed without Fail All the reviewed tested Hemi cars were equipped with either a 3:23 or 3:55 Axle Gear ratio Preventing the Hemi from Quickly reaching it's higher >4000 Rpm superior torque band......My new '70 Hemi--Cuda Dana 60 SureGrip 4:10 factory equipped Never had a 440 or Yenco 427 performance problem....At the Top end of the speedometer, from a highway Standing start, 130 Mph came up Quickly within 1/3 mile.....Later changing up to a 4:56 ratio made acceleration seem almost Blinding as Off the Line acceleration with wrinkle wall slicks (yes,..M & H's on the Street in '70) would cause a temporarily "Looking thru a Black closing down Pipe" effect !! ......None of my 440 buddies ever mentioned that happening......Just thought you might want to hear my 440 ---Hemi performance issue experience.......
MOPAR RULES
Dude……great video. But I don’t see anything on the gen III Hemi.
Thanks! I'm actually editing the voiceover for the GenIII right now! After that, I'll be laying it out in my video production app, so it's coming soon!
Excellent! I’m looking forward to it! Keep up the good work!
@@mr.fourspeed2007 Thank you!
I thought the first car was called high and mighty. Not ram rod.
You know, as finicky info from the Internet can be, I wouldn't be surprised!
@The Gearhead Lounge my mom actually owned one of there 70 challenger funny cars run by Goldstein. Look up herb mcclandless he ran for Sox and Martin but that man has story's to tell. The ramchargers started direct connection to make a connection with racers and teach them. Ronnie Sox did the plymouth side and dick landy the dodge side. They all were the chrysler team. In boats the chrysler crew was formed as well.
Id rather drive a gto
What year? GTO's are cool!
The Hemi without the plug wires going through the valve cover is not as impressive visually.
Well you Really Gkossed over the main fact in 1965. The banning of the HEMI'S resulted in a HUGE FAN BOYCOTT of NASCAR. It was one of the most major conditions in the history of the sanctioning body. Faced with the MASSIVE Boycott,
of fans, the darling France family HAD to allow the HEMI's back into the races.
The war between Ford and Mopar was reignited with a vengence. Which the Plymouths mostly won.
Wow! Thank you for that information! I tried to find out all the information I could, but I never saw anything about a boycott! I appreciate the story! Thank you!
Great Job!
Thank you so much!
I really enjoyed watching this video, please make more! You need Promo sm.
Thank you!
