[@Kevin_Knox]

Yeah this is probably the only time I've ever seen/heard a guy with one of these hotrods actually kick it with the spurs!

[@paulossiter]

Me too! if this doesn't get your pulse racing you must be dead

[@A65Driver]

This is the best car video on KZbin. The sound of that uncorked early chrysler mill makes me cry tears of joy.

[@Lastwordismine]

How many years later and I'm still watching this...best sound ever

[@Lastwordismine]

Lastwordismine Can we ever get a remake of this?

[@kelinjohnson7421]

Lastwordismine I been watching since 2007 lol

[@Lastwordismine]

[@kelinjohnson7421]

[@mothertree]

LOL I know it man...this baby is pure wicked love it !

[@ratrodramblin]

i've watched this video a billion times and it never gets old. when he pegs it i get goosebumps.

[@theenginekid]

The block is an early 331cui that is bored 0.125 inches by Reath Automotive. The heads are 354 industrial pieces. The valves are original ones, which are actuated by an original Sig Erson top fuel solid lifter cam, which is reground by Clay Smith. Further, the motor runs a stock crank on which Jahns pistons with a 10.5:1 compression are mounted.

[@pillipino3788]

And only runnin on the outside four carbs to boot

[@peterock1313]

I’ve watched this video so many times over the years, never gets old

[@systemsmith]

Sounds like a bag of spanners on idle but, damn, there isn't a better sound in the whole world than a hemi at full beans. I could listen to that all day.

[@shmedlyshmee]

i watch this clip every chance i get and i never get tired of it. gives gear heads insentive to build bad ass rigs!

[@kelinjohnson7421]

still watching in 2024 bro

[@sammybabizin]

I have searching this video for years!!! This is like my first youtube video I ever watched. So much nostalgia and remind me good times back then. Thank you!!

[@timothylaurent7532]

I remember watching this video 12 years ago--awesome sounds.... Love to see it in HD ;-)

[@davidthomas2145]

This is THE best vid on KZbin. Been watching it for many years.

[@starchief59]

That is by far the most wicked thing I've ever seen or heard! Almost exactly what I want to build. Major props

[@Lastwordismine]

2021 and this is still the best sounding exhaust video on KZbin...prove me wrong!

[@bodarville2510]

No other even close!!!

[@DWBCHALLENGER]

Had to come back for my annual "fix".....

[@kevinp766]

18 years of watching this with headphones and wiping a single tear from my cheek. Thank You.

[@theenginekid]

The Hemi powerplant was already in it, but it had different exhaust manifolds and only two Stromberg 97's. All that has changed, it now has open headers and runs 6 rebuilt Stromberg 97's on top of a Weiand Drag Star intake manifold. The headers that are mounted now are made by Jimmy, about 3 or 4 years ago he told me.

[@_David_E_]

This is my favourite V8 related video. Dam I love watching this. It always puts a smile on my face. It's the closest simulation I've found to the ride I had in an AC Cobra last year. Such a glorious sound.

[@tamasdukai4298]

So far best sound ever, and yeah i keep coming back for the sound.

[@Mechanicalinsanity]

i watch this video at least once a month, love the sound, raw power... rice burners could NEVER make me smile as i do when i hear this open hemi.. dont junk them RESTORE THEM. rat rods forever!!!

[@cathleenberreie9768]

Oh my gosh...that sounds soooo great....I can feel the power radiating thru' my computer screen...love it!!!

[@DasMoose9001]

I think I know this car and the dude driving it. Was built in Savannah, GA and my uncle (through my then step-mother) had it in Charleston, SC or the relevant area, survived a house fire (was in the connected garage) but was sold to build the new house. No idea where it is today if this is the same car, but watching this made me feel like I was punched in the gut, core memory stuff......I wouldn't be surprised if this is that car I grew up near for a few years of my childhood.

[@pillipino3788]

Jimmy white from circle city hot rods man!

[@vancefitzpatrick9317]

a sound you can never get out of anything except a v8 beautiful loud pure American muscle

[@ltgator333]

This video never gets old. I've never heard an old school hemi run in person, but after watching this video it's on my list of things I gotta do.

[@jimhobbs4129]

Don "Big Daddy" Gartlis blew his Olds engine and took the hemi out of his tow car (a chrysler) and put it in his Swamp Rat front engine dragster and forgot all about running anything else. Early hemis were limited to 30 degrees timing or they would blow. When the 426 was introduced Don pulled the timing to 40 degrees and the rest is history.

[@madmikeastoria]

Thats a great story Jim..I hope to get to Ocala Fla one day to see his museum with all his retired toy's in it!

[@bugo348]

Music to my ears. That Hemi sounds beautiful when the hammer is dropped. Pure bliss.

[@leonardtribble2475]

this is the coolest car on the planet....

[@DobermansRock]

Brought back hidden memories. Thank you young bucks. Wish I could go just one more time. Before I go. Keep the dream alive. Thank you...

[@unclebobisms]

4 speed stick ,six pack on an uncorked Hemi , a cool body and no front brakes.. I want it.,why you ask, cause I don't want to die in an convalescent home

[@6sudali]

Who could ask for anything more?

[@johngrepo9976]

This is how a gearhead has to leave the world

[@jaratt85]

please never delete this.. I have it bookmarked and listen to it regularly anytime I just have to have that sound

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

I have not been here for a while... It's good to be back!!! :-)

[@SoCalJohnston]

Sickest sounding 30-31 coupe I have ever heard. Awesome ride man! You drive it the way it should be driven.

[@NickG40]

This is what a REAL Hemi sounds like.

[@Kydox]

Best car sound ever, nothing can beat this...

[@esteladapper8892]

Yes it is... the best video on KZbin

[@johnbeck4777]

Could we get Fast and loud to re create this car and how much ?

[@Jackthelad966]

my oldlady and me dig this thump for several years now. Thank U!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MCRmechanic]

Is this Jimmy White's '31 ford at Circle City Hot Rods?

[@MCRmechanic]

It is!

[@johngrepo9976]

Yes

[@mungers88]

The first video i ever watched on youtube and saved 16 years ago, wow

[@Ratridez]

You sir are the king of ratrods 👍

[@Ajen1959]

It dont get any sweater! Brings a smile to my face every time i see and hear it!

[@beefiness]

Best overrun i've ever heard!

[@billville111]

Supernatural - something that is not supposed to happen but does happen. When I am Emperor, these will be available for your drivers license test drive.

[@Steven_McCrae]

Goosebumps every time man ,

[@dukainmanning7246]

45yo and I still giggle. It's pure awesomeness.

[@Sidetracker]

Sweetest sound in the world!

[@jmb3000]

Even five years later, this video still is one of my favorites!

[@justinmyslive4108]

I'd get into so much trouble with that damn thing

[@warrior7772]

Best video on KZbin. He drives like I used to drive my Hemi 71 'Cuda with open headers. Nice video dude. Do another one.

[@meanmrmustang]

now that's a hotrod,

[@amaranthkath]

Believe it or not, I have never bothered to acquire a driver's licence. Watching videos like this explains to me the error of my ways. Thanks for posting this.

[@Motor_mouth89]

like if you agree that this is the best example of thee definition of Bad Ass!!!

[@KOOLDAVE1953]

I closed my eyes and just listened to that Mopar...I was mystically transported back to the mid 60's...right in my comfort zone. Nothing like it anywhere.

[@charleywaffles6366]

Still one of the koolest videos on KZbin, by far!

[@davidom7607]

Crankin it up with subs and shaking my house!

[@djlau1]

Dave Nichols same here with my 4 18 inch subs and 2 18s with 4 mids and 2 horns haha

[@kernow62]

@@djlau1 I've only got a single Definitive Technology PF1800 and I have to keep it turned right down so I don't shake the house apart. It goes down to 13 Hz which is plenty for me.

[@salemcripple]

I like the non-mounted camera in this vid. It alows you to see the G's when accelerateing.

[@brianswelding]

I put this on repeat in my earbuds to go to sleep. ASMR

[@walterwilliams4513]

Here I am again….just needed to hear this badassery to make the day better!

[@darricknratrods]

the dude laughing at the end sums it up

[@barryruss4042]

I first saw this video 5yrs ago when I was 52 I enjoyed it so much I'm now 36 😎😎😎

[@tonyhomeboy]

this vid gives me wood ! i get goose bumps everytime i watch it, by far one of the best clips on the tube !!! MAKE MORE !!!

[@AtticaSalt]

Still the best video on KZbin.

[@hemidan407]

I still get goose bumps from this vid, bad ass!

[@rauliorga3823]

7-10 years later, i still have not heard a better sounding V8 engine than first hearing this.

[@xfurb]

Unbelievable, when I'm watching this my heart serieously pumps ten times faster.

[@HamptonBallance]

with that power, it throws you back in the seat!! AWESOM!!!!

[@ChevyBM]

I have been listening to the sound of this video for over ten years! It is fucking amazing!

[@strattuner]

that cam,those carbs,that exhaust note,the sound of compression,oh its a hotrod,hell a real one

[@jfc1320]

coolest thing I've ever seen on KZbin.

[@killicka]

Absolutely Awesome. Prob the best video on youtube, and the sound it makes is just immense!! Great work!!

[@Welcometofacsistube]

8 years later and still one of my favourite videos

[@idezilla]

Wow, thanks for the ride! Brings back many fond memories.

[@mrtexboilerman]

That is without a doubt the sickest, coolest, "video" ride I have ever experienced here.....major friggin cool!

[@rs04srt4]

[@Yo-mamashouse]

I would love to know the cam specs.....

[@k98k9]

I don't know how many times I've watched this clip but it never gets old.

[@76ditchrider]

has to be one of the all time best hot rod videos...

[@H4v0kksh0tgunMan]

Still find this video to be awesome, the sound quality is amazing. I like to wake up my roomaates by cranking my speakers and subwoofer and play this video half way in the middle. They hate me coz of it but love the car. Nothing like the sound of an open exhaust.

[@tommyt71t62]

Awesome video what cam did you use in the 392

[@PTAR1984]

It’s been 14 years and I continue to come back here I wish there was a way to get this video with today’s video quality

[@kingtut8381]

WOW !! BROUGHT BACK SO MANY GRA 8 MEMORIES. THANX A BUNCH

[@Valtiel1605]

God damn that thing sounds like such a beast I love it.

[@solidfilmsYT]

i swear just watching this video and i could smell all the unburnt fuel coming from the exhaust... brought a huge chuckie cheese smile to my face watchin this.

[@heatharoni]

Jimmy White's Hemi Coupe I have always loved this video :]

[@toshiedrive]

ABSOLUTELY DEADLY!!! looooove that hemi sound.

[@winkytct]

that sound is music to my ears! i love it!

[@playingwithfirehurts]

holy shit, that exhaust note is to die for

[@BjarneRousing]

You know it's a god sound, when your hair on your back rises.

[@dougletv]

Ed big daddy Roth loved that sound ! Long live the Rat Fink !!

[@ngbanks]

I'm right there with you, I drive a 5.7L Hemi Ran!

[@GTVAlfaMan]

Take that Eurotrash cars! This is the best sounding engine on KZbin.

[@_alexmiles_]

Happy birthday rat! 🎉

[@oldmusher]

The intake (carbs bolted to it) is called a "log" style manifold. Each side has an open area under the carbs (plenum) and as each cylinder fires it can draw gas/air mixture from the plenum. Not all cylinders fire at once, so the positioning is not as black and white as you imagine. Plus these are relatively small carbs. There are single 4-barrel carbs available that flow more than all 6 of these antique strombergs. Of course, they don't look nearly as scary!

[@countryman1970]

I still want to know more about this car, I've been watching this video for almost as long as it's been on here. Love that sweet sound

[@Arcticun]

This is Jim White's Model A Coupé 5w, 331 Hemi bored 0.125, The heads are 354 industrial pieces. The valves are original ones, which are actuated by an original Sig Erson top fuel solid lifter cam, which is reground by Clay Smith. Further, the motor runs a stock crank on which Jahns pistons with a 10.5:1 compression are mounted.

[@hdjasonwf]

Gotta love it, NOTHING can beat the sound. Saw it along time ago, still have to come back and watch it every now and then with a beer and just smile. love the way he hammers on it. Thi is how these cars should be driven. WFO

[@beesea7065]

Love this video! I have searched and searched for it and happily am here again all these years later! Nothing like that Hemi roaring! If I could only drive that car once, I don't think I could control my gritty laughter as I was pissing off all the social justice warriors with their EV cars..

[@firemanrealtor]

Does anyone know who owns this car or how to contact the owners? I would like to acquire it if possible.

[@barfyspitz]

Isn't funny how just the sound of that badass makes people smile uncontrollably.

[@mothertree]

LOLOL

[@black82s10]

awesome... and rocking the 4 speed. love it man
