1970 Plymouth Superbird Tribute featuring Mopar \u201cHellcrate\u201d HEMI Engine Kit<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mark Worman, star of Velocity\u2019s Graveyard Carz vehicle restoration television show, helped Mopar introduce the brand\u2019s 345 and 392 Crate HEMI Engine Kits last year at the SEMA Show. Worman returns to Las Vegas with a fresh new Mopar build: a 1970 Plymouth Superbird Tribute fueled by the plug and play capabilities of the new \u201cHellcrate.\u201d<\/p>\n

A Mopar enthusiast and brand ambassador, Worman and his Graveyard Carz team embarked on a faithful clone restoration of the Limelight Green Superbird, but decided to tweak the \u201cBird\u201d to truly make it fly with 707 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. of torque.To do so, Worman dropped in the \u201cHellcrate\u201d kit and 6.2-liter supercharged Crate HEMI Engine assembly in the Superbird clone. Power is put to the ground via a Tremec Magnum six-speed manual transmission kit. Engine accessory hardware components used in the build include the Front End Accessory Drive (FEAD) Kit.<\/p>\n
