HEMIs aint good???

heres my .02
for one thing adamr is right, i dont see any other engine combo for nitro in the last oh 50 years that worked so well that they are still useing it. with that the engine parts of a t/f of f/c will bolt on a 426 hemi--- might not run but it will bolt on. second my dad has owned a 67 hemi charger since 1969. he raced it and ended up braking it twice and replaced it with a 383. people to this day still tell me what a bad @ss car it was in the day(street racing and at the drags) he put a hemi back in it in 92 and has driven to columbus twice, and to other long distane places. when dodge offered that in street cars it was for one reson to make it legel for NASCAR and to drag race. you didnt opt. for the hemi if you was going to put it around the shopping mall, and if you did get it you had to be mechaniclly knowledgable of how to make it have low end and how far ahead of its time the heads were. we are getting it ready to drive to bowling green to the hot rod reunoin next month and im am sure he will let it eat and power shift and al that good stuff. these old engines are reliable if you know what you are driving. i have driven the car a few times and its as much fun you can have with your pants on. well thats all i have to say---426 HEMIs rule
