Blown Hemi
OK guys & girls
Got a question on supercharging a hemi. I am putting together a 33 roadster, and looking for the pros and cons of either going the retro 354/392, or going with a new style 426. The roadster will be street driven, with some extended runs of maybe 5 day trips so it can't be to wild. It will be backed up with an automatic, and Ford 9 inch. How about some names of reputable people who do hemis besides Hot heads & big Als toybox, for price comparisons. Of course I am not afraid to have the machine work done, screw the engine together myself, but we are talking time, and for me free time is limited. I have seen some interesting deals on ebay, but my first objective is old style or go full boogie 426/472? Yea I know there is no replacement for displacement.but we are talking a 33 so old style would more period correct for what that is worth
Thanks,
Mike
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
