If you do choose to go with a chevy motor, goodluck, I'm sure it will be like putting a square peg in a round hole but then a again if you like doing lots of fab work, you've got the right project. JMO> Cp |

I race with a guy that has a 440 Mopar in a 64 Ford truck.
|
if you are on a budget then find a mopar motor. you will spend a lot more money and time fabricating everything from motor mounts, trans mounts, etc. trying to make the chevy fit in the crab car...
just my opinion |
If you want to go fast stick with the chevy motor. LOL :lol: :lol:
|
My cousin and I put a 455 Pontiac, in a Morris Minor woodie.... go for it.
It wasn't very practicle, but it sure was fun. |
I have an 84 toyota truck with a Chevy motor in it. With Front motor plates and a midplate you could put a chevy in just about anything without too much hassle. I would guess that you will need less work with the sledge hammer than I did...lol....
|
I am ''tod'' ripping at the seams, biting my tongue, trying to find a nerve pill :!: :!: :twisted: :twisted:

haha well i think they might actualy do it because he loves the way that scamp look but nothing runs as hard or fast as a chevy in his opinion sorry "mopar :lol: :P :!: "
|
No problem; You know what opinions are like? Everyone has one :!: :!:

toyota with chevy in it!! now i need a nerve pill, mopar got a spare :?: :P :P
|
A little ol Toyota motor wont spin my 33.5 x 16 hoosiers like the 360 does... :lol:
http://static.racingjunk.com/63/ui/3...8481693757.jpg We are gonna put the 700 horse 408 in it for Pinks all out at Indy to get it in the low 10's. The little 360 only runs 11.2's and I dont think that will make the show... |

i give a lot of credit to the guys that fit square pegs into round holes, its hard enough to make things work when there supose to work together. 8) 8)
|
They ask why a ''FORD'' in a ''CHEBBY'' his answer was that he wanted to go fast :!: :!: :lol: :lol:
''JUST MY TWO CENT'S WORTH'' http://www.racingjunk.com/profile/163312 |

Those mopar guys don't want a chevy engine in a mopar because when it blows them away and everyone asks whats in it and they say a chevy, they will be like "oh so thats why it is so fast" :lol: :lol:
Actually I like anything fast, I just wanted to take a stab at mopar1968 8) |
Don't get mopar1968 all wound up he just got over having a heart attack, Mark got those nerve pills handy ??? :lol: :lol:
|
Yes and nitro also :!: :!:

All I got to say is, when top fuel needs the most HP possible what engine do they choose?
Sorry, but Mopar is at the top of the food chain........... |
You got to have something good to put them chebby engines into to make them look good :!: :!:

Not much Chevy oem on a 565 either, and not very many people running a stock displacement BBC 454. Big Daddy ran a Hemi Mopar with as many Mopar parts as a lot of superpro racers have Chevy parts now. Hemi is still all that and a bag of chips.......sorry.
|
Oh wow!!!!!!!!!!! My 600 post now I'm a full fledged racing junkie..lol. :lol:
|
I do believe the top fuel hemi's are based on the 426, today's top fuel hemi is still the same design as the 426, Can anyone tell us what the correct cubic inches is for a top fuel hemi :?: I know the answer :!: A friend of mine has a old top fuel car in his garage, complete car :!: No cheating now on the answer :!: Parts on today's top fuel hemi is still interchangeable :!: If you can afford them :!: :!: :)
''JUST MY TWO CENT'S WORTH'' http://www.racingjunk.com/profile/163312 |
Hemi
I'll take a guess, 499 cid.
I think 500 is the max and they would want to be safe from a disqualification. |
ok i dont see the original bag of chips being able to make 5000 hp or whatever they are making now. didnt they sell the rights of the 426 and somebody else made the hemi bad? :lol:
|
No they did not sell the right's, dodge is coming out with a 426 next year in the challenger,Keith black got permission from chrysler in 1967 to clone the engine, he then started making alunium blocks, made them stronger to make HP , other engine builders followed keith black in this process! So what is the correct cubic inches for todays hemi in a top fuel :?: :?: The most HP from a orginal 426 was around 2500 with blower,Don garlits in swamp rat 3 was pushing almost 3000 in factory block :!: :!:

Guess: 500 cu. in. :?: :?:
