NIce ride you have my car loving friend. Love those old Hemi's I to had a 392 from a 1957 Chy. Never did get to bild it. It was setting on others property. It was halled off while we were gone out of state. That was many years ago now. Still feel the loss thou..My Granddad just did not know where the line was. a new owner had it rechecked off the old deed. I think they messed it up. Oh well life goes on. Thats life in FL for ya.
I have a late 54 331 hemi.love the sound of yours was wondering what cam you have and would you change anything . Mine is stock 4 barrel and runs great but I am going to go nostalgia racing and some bracket racing. Sits in a 35 ford 5w thats 40 in. tall. Appreciate your thoughts You have bad ass rod !
no i was just saying i wanted to see you it smoke the tires a little bit. for infomation mine v6 is not rental nor is muffler rusted off! plus i dont have the money you make!
pos? You're not very nice. Maybe some day when you grow up you will learn to take care of things rather than destroy them. People should check out your shitty ex rental car v6 mustang with the muffler removed (rusted off?)featured on your video page. Too bad it's the internet and I can't kick your pos to the floor grocery boy -- ha.
I've had 4/Coupe's in my 68yrs. and I never layed into em' any harder than I knew they would take before turning on me!!You have the right outlook on it!!
i am considering putting a 354 in my 55 dodge as a replacement for the straight six that came standard, your probably the fifth or sixth guy i have heard about having this engine transmission combination, why did you decide to go with the top loader?
Honestly? Well, I had a toploader oiling down my garage floor and kept stubbing my toe on it. I also found an ancient adapter plate at a swap meet with "McBar Machine Shop" cast into it. My 354 is actually a 331 extended bell block, bored over to take used 354 pistons -- they have the same stroke. I was fortunate enough to scrounge a set of nice 354 heads so I could use a more "modern" (eg 1955) intake with a water crossover in it. What can I say, I'm a knuckle dragging primitive... Do It!
Thanks! It has Sanderson "Limefire" megaphone headers that I can uncap for open exhaust. Normally I run it with the caps on and exhaust thru a couple of 30" glasspacks. It's still loud running that way.
Well, Thanks! I'll take that as a compliment that you think the car looks fantastic. In reality I drive it quite a bit -- even in the rain. If you go fast enough the rain goes over the top. It has all of the scars and rock chip repairs to prove it. This one's a driver but I do try and keep it reasonably nice. It's showing its age. Thanks for watching.
In sweden u got to have : seatbelts,a quiet exhaustsystem,fenders, maximum 1hk/100 kg, windshieldwipers,approwed lights and....... you name it. A volvo is a very suitable car for us swedes the gouverment and of course the police , says. If we drive a car like this we could get hurt, or have to much fun.
nah don't listen to that person, ofcourse you can drive cars like this in sweden, problems is just sometimes byrocratical people who doesn't want cars like this on the road, claiming they are ''dangerous, enviromental harming'', as well as they might be hard sometimes to registrate the cars, depends completely on how the car is build and so on, but it's just a minority who don't want these cars, most of them really like them, but byrocratical people can sometimes be a problem, but not always.
for a long time, enthusiasts have been forced to be more orginised and working together to work against those byrocratical bastards in high-positions in the community who doesn't want cars like these on the road, people who decides laws e.t.c paoples at vagvarket e.t.c,but it's been succesfull in striwing to let cars like this legal,you can registrate and drive them,but don't take the minority of the byrocrats as a representing all swedes,most of us likes cars like this, and drives them.nice car
we can...its just hard to make them street legal...check my channel out and you can see a prime example of a "street legal" car..my saab 900 gl with 3" sidepipes without mufflers...on idle we measured 105 dB at 1 meter away from the exhaust ends.....thats 105 dB per side....and it got through our car inspection authority....but not without an argument and some namecalling...
Awesome 354 Hemi build, not enough videos of the early Firepowers around, especially 354s as they were soon eclipsed by the more-than-legendary 392. Great engine build, sounds awesome!
I guess four people are jealous!!!

In Sweden there is a law against havin fun, driving a car like this probably means a 300 dollar ticket and a walk home.
