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
Well I've sure gotten old too so don't worry about it! I've had two bypass surgeries, new knees, fought prostate, cancer and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine,...
