1972 Charger 6.1 Hemi, 6-Speed Viper Transmission - Dyno Session

We finally had a chance to tune the 72 charger that we currently finished building for a local client. We took his one owner original 72 Charger and implanted an 07 Charger 6.1 Hemi engine and a 6-speed Manual Viper Transmission, all new Suspension, front K-Member, rear 4-Link, 4-wheel Disc brakes, Rack-n-Pinion Steering. Fabricated in the 2007 Charger Gauge Cluster & Steering column with the original dash. Took a 2009 Challenger 6-Speed console and fabricated it into the car. Along with a Mazda touch screen DVD NAV system, Some Carbon Fiber to help tie the interior pieces together, recovered a pair of electric convertible Sea-bring bucket seats as well, with an Audi TT flip down access panel molded into the dash to cover the Vintage AC, Lights, & Wiper controls! Enjoy the video...

has anyone stopped to think that the owner has the interior that he actually wanted and not what YT watchers wanted?!? You know, being it's his car and all, I'm just saying...

@DeAdiSSu3 Thats who rebuilt my 318 shortblock, and did the heads for my charger, it is awesome, they done fantastic work and was really one on one with me during my build, Ritchie is who i dealt with, he really took the time and went over it all with me, i Give them a thumbs up times ten,!!!!!!!!

That's wicked-I like the mating of modern tech & an classic body-I bet that catches the Blue Oval lovers off-guard!

Nicely done.

There still needs to be some tunning he should get a little more than that at the wheels.

@DeAdiSSu3 Cheers for that mate. Sounds like a bargain especially for a scratch built engine.

[DeAdiSSu3]

This thing doesn't sound right to me....does it have headers?

@twinturboteen18 Mopar crate motors seem to be a bit more expensive, i'm guessing because there's less people/companies producing them as opposed to ford and chevy. Hey you know, you should try Carolina Machine Engines (CME) and see if they ship to you. I remember seeing a bunch of 408's and 440's that they make for cheap, like, around 4-5 k and you get a brand new machined engine made from a solid chunk of metal. That's a good price range too, i've seen the same engines, same power for 10-15 k

@freedomwalkkid are you usinga crate motor? i want one for my vh aussie charger but i have heard the mopar crate motors arent the best value? im in aus so its very ford, chev dominated here and finding chrysler information and parts is hard.
