Finally getting HEMI running

Finally getting HEMI running - 01/20/20 12:47 AM

I initially used a local shop to do machine work on my 540 Ci HEMI in my 66’ convertable Corornet. I enjoyed the car for several years but was unhappy with the oil consumption.
Last year I pulled it and took it to Performance Automotive in Greenville TN. We found many issues that Bob corrected.
Now I have a pump gas, 667 HP @ 5,800 rpm STREET/CRUISE. Engine!
I am looking forward to Cruises the Coast again this year!

Congrats, how do you like the 1 to 1 carb linkage vs the progressive one?

I like the 1-1 setup. It offers very smooth operation, especially when the vacuum secondaries open.
