Original car too

Don't most all of those boosted cars have Hemis?

The "Original" car LOL. Only thing original to that car, from when the show started, is the roof and quarters.

It's still a cheby, That's why i don't watch it. If you do see a mopar they put a cheby motor in it

...and they put on new quarters!

There's a Dart running around my neighborhood that really sounds like a beast. Saw the guy at a gas station and complimented him on it. We got to talking and sure as [censored] it was an LS-something. Bad ass car, though and kind of opened my eyes to some options for the future.

Its trending.....Proline seems to be the key in equation....The 481X is a stout engine as well, but I think the Hemi has been scienced out a bit further and just flat out works better. If it were me, I would run a Noonan 4.9 Big Dog Hemi if I ran at that level.....But with either power plant, you have to put in the work and the testing and in spare parts...If you don't, your a Duck...These guys are capable of running well into the 3sec zone, and that comes with cost.

New mopar on the circuit. 68 Cuda (Badfish Racing) It looks pretty fast too.

That is Marty Robins, and that car is not new...It has gone thru a lot of transformations and a wreck. I liked it as a procharged car, but they keep changing it to a screw blower car....I am surprised that they can't get it to run with a Procharger.

7 years ago it debuted....

I would have bought the chassis setup for a procharger before they wrecked it the first time....Love that car!

It's great when the hemi emerges as the king but it is also disappointing. I really like the variety of cars and combinations you see on the street or specifically used to see on that show. As it has gotten so competitive, it seems most people are merging toward 1-2 combos. Love him or hate him, I admired Big Chief for keeping his car quasi Pontiac for as long as he did. At this point, several guys are basically running detuned Top Alcohol Funny Car Motors. Most are procharged Hemi's I think.

There have been a few teams that went over to screw blowers for NPK this year. I think it comes down to what combos the class may favour at the time. It's one of the reasons Ryan Martin went over to a Procharger I believe.

Seems like a lot of the Procharger guys had issues keeping blowers together.

Could be the reason that Swanstrom went to a screw blower??

Would be cool of they air brushed it with all fake rust and patina and called it the Rotten Fish

He says in the video its hurt motors that kill prochargers, something to do with coming unbalanced

Pretty sure Swanstrom and Daddy Dave said it was from trying to spin them too fast.

I have an F1-C which is pretty big on my 01 Cobra which can spin to 7200 rpm from the factory but Procharger says not to spin the blower past 6500 which really isn't that much RPM.

somehow Ryan Martin and Axeman don't break prochargers but everyone else seems to?

Front what I have seen, if you miss the tune up and damage the engine, it can take the procharger out.

Some guys just wanna get that last little bit, and believe it's hiding inside the blower.

If 100% is ok, 110% must be even better, and 125% is even more so. BOOM!
