Folks Of Interest The Glory that is the Hemi, picture thread

Does anyone else see the Irony in this pic? Alan Green Chevrolet sponsors a Chrysler powered dragster.

 

I understand your thinking, but that is Jerry Ruth's car, and the Chevy dealer would want his name on the car for a number of reasons, like providing tow vehicles.

 

I should be posting quite a few pictures next week from Bowling Green.

 

I'd be interested in knowing when and why did they switch between this intake and the one you posted in post 1716 with the one piece casting and plugs for intake bolt access. Was it cost alone-they already has the molds, was it a better design/rpm range, or just the ability to swap tops?


edit: i just noticed your post 1728 that shows the orange 1 piece that also has a removable plate in the middle. interesting...

From Bowling Green today

 

The first Hemi I have ever built and my first blown motor and OMG it runs unbelievable.

 

Nice build.

 

Never knew Richard had them painted Petty blue.

 

I didn’t either until I toured their museum, some Hemi Orange, some Petty blue, and mixed on some engines, like blue heads orange block. If you ever get a chance, it’s a great place to visit.
