How many hemi owners on the board

does 66 and 67 factory hemi cars count if so. i have one each the 67 is a GTX convertible. last i checked one of ten known to exist.

 

Just picked up my first one last week....1955 Desoto 291 (s21)


Going to be a while collecting parts for it, and finishing other projects

 

i've got a 241, 2 315's, and 2 325's. also some 392 parts.

 

330,341 and 354 always lookin for a car sitting in a feild or somewhere for a 392, desotos can run into some big money, im running one now and would like to eventually have the big chrysler as you can get so much more like blower manifolds and stuff, but no complaints other than cost on making a desoto really go, although in a light car more than enough power even mildly built.

 

291 Desoto. She's real rusted, stuck and needs parts. But someday it'll purrrr...

 

i got a 392 , finally un stuck !!! if i get rid of some of the stock parts i can afford some pistons and some shiny polished after market parts !! got the anglia car for it , will make a nice streeter mike "carryallman"

 

1955 331 Chrysler Firepower and 1955 Super Red Ram 270.

 

I have a chrsler 331 short bell and a 354. I am picking up another 354 in the next couple weeks

 

I have one of those little baby Daimler Hemis in my midget.

 

I have a Desoto 330 s-24 in my bucket-t. runs great. collecting parts for blower application.

I've got two..a '53 ,276 DeSoto hemi and a '54 chrysler 331 hemi which still needs spark ,pulleys, carburetor's and water pump.......

 

for all the hemi owners... is there a place to get the early hemi stlye idler pully?

 

do you think one from a desoto will work?

 

What's this motor going into? Bill

 

i got a 331 out of a 55 new yorker in my garage, gonna put it in one of my chevys! probably gonna piss some one off, lol, but hey we all put chevys in everything else right?

 

Do you know if Hilborn developed their on EFI, or get it ffom someone elseI got a Megasquirt for about $700 and it can be tuned from a laptop. Is your tuneable? Bill

 

I just picked this one up last weekend. 1956' 354.

 

Picked up my first Hemi a few weeks back. Its a 1954 331 with the short bell. Complete from carb to pan. Its going through a quick tear down now since its been sitting 8 years since it was rebuilt. Looking good so far, cant wait to get the rest apart and back together to hear it fire.

 

i have a 331 that im rebuilding

 

1957 Chrysler 392, 671 Weiand blower, 2 Holleys, etc., in a '53 Plymouth 2dr panel wagon. NO HI-TECH, just an old hot rod.....

 

Those things are sooo cool in midgets! I remember watching one at the vintage races in central CA for years. Driven by an old timer with a hook.

Dijuphukitstan??? Is that near Cmoniwannalaya?

 

I have one ..but its a 2006....

 

Just finished this 270 Dodge Bored .060, 468 degree cam , triple 94's, four speed 833 over drive behind it

 

I am a new owner.. I typicaly bleed Ford blue, but I now have aquired a 1955 Chrysler New Yorker Deluxe with the 331 Hemi 4bbl. It was my great grandfathers car. Even though he has been gone for almost 20 years, it will forever remain his car. I am just the care taker. "Pop's 55" will be back on the road again.

 

any other 55 chrysler owners on here?

 

I have a 1955 331 in my 32 coupe i love it goes like a rocket

 

My first. '52 331. First installed in 1957.
