How do you make the coolest muscle car of all time cooler? You let McLeod do its magic. It’s not new for a manufacturer to have an in-house test vehicle to try some new products. When McLeod debuted their Muscle Car 5 Transmission, 1970 Hemi Cuda owner Paul Lee thought this would be the perfect opportunity \u00a0to create an amazing car, \u00a0and after a long two years of construction the ‘Cuda is finally reeking havoc on the streets. Lee’s \u00a0\u2018Cuda is packing an Arrington Performance built 528ci 2nd-Gen Hemi with Edelbrock heads and a Procharger F-2 that has been dyno\u2019d at 1,300 hp. Lee is trying everything he can to take the Muscle Car 5 Transmission to the absolute limit, and having fun while doing it.<\/p>\n
