426 Hemi - a documetary history and explanation

What about the 427 ford cammer didnt that fuckin own the hemi in what ever year it was even tho it only in production for a lil while

Damm I wish we had the V8 hemi here in australia, so chrysler australia developed the most powerful strait six , yep the hemi six powered the aussie charger it even pipped the V8 ford GT on the quarter mile . chrylser took the Hemi six to italy at the webber factory and said develop a carby for it so they fitted tripple webbers and man did it fly, out pacing the dino ferrari outside the webber factory in bologna italy. regards from south australia,

i will have to correct you here man. The Double Overhead Camshaft Hemi was developed when Ford Thretened the ordinary with their Sohc 427 "The Cammer", rumored to produce over 650 hp. In Fact the Dohc Chrysler hemi produced over 800, but when Nascar ruled against it it wasnt necessery to produce it, and only 2 was made.

do you know that Chysler is credited to saving about 1 000 000 million american lives and shortened World War 2 with about a year?:=)

the car did not have the original 340 and the Hemi 426 is being built its not a crate hemi. But still as an investment should it be worth much more than I would have gotten with the above discription.

I have a 340 cuda 1973. If I put in a 426 Hemi, would it increase the value of the car much?

it depends on the buyer if its original keep it that way plus a 426's are very expensive youd be better off boreing a smaller one up

the hemi would add $10000 to the vallue...so depends on how much you paid for the hemi...a factory 340 cuda in poor but drivable condition is worth about $5000 a fully restored better than new condition one is worth about $60000...half what it would have gone for before the stockmarket crash =(

JarrodES13, Chysler DID develop and ran this engine. Google: A925 Hemi

The first Hemi engine combustion chamber was designed by the Climax engine company back in 1896 WOW then in 1912 twin city tractor company built a engine with a Hemi cylnder

The 426 Hemi is a Legend . It re-wrote the record books and the Chrysler Hemi design still rocks the major motorsports world today.
