I enjoy these stories of old. I am the old guy now I guess(65)? I have an 08 Chevy truck with a 6.0 LS engine that just screams. Supposed to be around 365 hp and 383 lbft torque. I would have loved to have had something that powerful in my 70 Catalina I would have ruled the night. The 429 engine I had in my 73 Torino was only 198 HP and 320 torque. I thought I had a hot rod. My truck has 160,000 miles and it doesn't burn oil between changes. Love the old stuff but some of the more modern engines have come a long way. Not a big fan of what they did to the later LS with the deleting cylinder crap. Thankfully mine doesn't have that.

I worked on a few Chryslers back in the day. The 440s and 383s were the big block workhorses, but the 426 Hemi was kind of inconvenient. For one, parts for it were expensive even back then. Also, everything about the Hemi was different from Chrysler's other big blocks, so it pretty much needed its own separate service manual.

426 Hemi's are for the most unbeatable. However, my 1968 Hemi Charger bad a cracked crank. I never could get rid of the vibration in the 40-60 mph range. In neutral. it had a metallic sound at 2,000 rpm. The source of the metallic sound was the crank making contact with the windage tray. I finally sold it to a hot rod dealer on Colorado Blvd. (Where the Rose Parade travels) Two men took my 426 Hemi Charger for a test drive. The motor scattered all over the street! I was really glad i didn't own it anymore! I learned 20 or so years later that it was common for 426 Hemi' to have bad cranks!

Neither of us were Mopar fans at the time, but the price and condition of a Duster my friend was looking at were too good to pass up. That car got challenged everywhere! Because a Duster was an economy car, right? And only kids would thing a Duster wast fast, Amiright? I used to like cruising in my buddy's Duster more than in my Z-28 because he got challenged to more street races because suckers took that car for granted. Good times!

I remember in the way back, the Oldsmobile OW43 experimental engine.derived by stages from the 455 although sharing virtually nothing with the production engine. DOHC, 4 valve per cylinder hemi, alloy block and heads among other exotic features. Even 4 x 2bbl Webers. But corporate suits got too antsy about stuffing a monster like that in an Oldsmobile and the project was canceled. If it had gone into production, it would surely have been king of the muscle car hill.

There’s a greatest for many different reasons. I’d like to say; a nice 12 second car good for groceries, work and Sundays year after year without much more than Saturday service parts.

Why is there no mention of the 426 Superstock that was introduced in 1963 Dodge cars and was discontinued after 1964? The most powerful version of that engine was rated at 425 BHP and then it was realized that the average guy who bought a car like that had a hard time driving it on the street. After that, the engine was tamed down for the average buyer, and the more potent version was assigned for racing.

I'm not surprised you didn't get the Fords right. 2:53 The 428 is a RV motorhome engine not anywhere worthy to be mentioned. 9:27 The 'Cammer' was supposed to be an Engineering exercise, never meant for the street. It was sold to racers, never saw production intended for use by the public. The Ford engines you didn't mention were the 289/302 & the 427FE. All three engines have racing pedigrees besides being produced for the public. The 427 won Le Mans in '66 & '67. It won in NASCAR & NHRA, the 428 never came close. So you rookies need to do your homework. So on a 'A+' to 'F' grading scale, you get an 'F' for your Ford selections.

@@Jerry-zk1pk I used to see Dart 340 win occasionally on a paved 1/3rd mile oval track. He'd tighten up that right side torsion bar and beat the big 455 Olds and 440 Mopars through and coming out of the turns. Sometimes they passed him on the straights but he was competitive in wins. The factory offered good things for the 340. A freind with a 340 in a Challenger loved racing the big motors for one block. Hard to catch in just a block.

Hemi Broke every record whether at Indy in the 50s to Big Daddy Don GARLITS Dragster in the 60s on the strip to RICHARD PETTY in Stock car ! To land speed records on the Bonneville salt flats ! Argue all you want about any other piston powered engine the Hemi owned them all! I lived that generation I used to go to the drag strips and look at all the funny cars that were chevy and ford fiberglass bodies all powered by the HEMI ! Even Shirley Muldowney ran a Hemi Plymouth!

Nope. The 429 Boss was a killer on the large ovals. On the street, not so much. It was put in the '69 and '70 Mustangs to homologate the engine for NASCAR. The 429 Boss suffered down low because of the huge intake valves and ports, but they screamed at high revs. The Torinos and Cyclones got them for NASCAR and did well. They were impressive from both engineering and visual perspectives. Very much aligned with the 427 SOHC as a unicorn/icon.

@@hughblack3456 I think only a limited number of dealer delivered MUSTANGS came with the high end race version of the Boss 429 engine, just enough to meet NASCAR rules for stock racing. I saw a gorgeous brand new 1969 BOSS 429 MUSTANG in a Chicago showroom, body was not trimmed with the typical chrome. Beautiful. Price $5000

Any discussion of the greatest V8 engines of all time that doesn't mention the Chevy L86 327 cu. in. is severely lacking. The author of this video either has a predilection for big blocks and rat motors or is ignorant of what was pushing our rides in the Sixties.

Pontiac SD was the last performance engine. But it was low compression. Had good pieces but not up to the 454 LS6 etc of Chevy in the 70 period. Again wrong ... 310hp.

The 428 CJ was an awesome high performance street motor. More well mannered for the street than its brother, the 427 FE. The longer stroke and smaller bore helped the 428 with low end torque. The 427 with its large bores stretched the FE block envelope to its limits. Controlling casting shift in production made for many scrap 427 blocks because of quality constraints and concern for thin cylinder walls, is why 427 production was rather limited. The smaller 428 bore eliminated that concern.

from stop light to stop light the 273 could beat the 426 Hemi, but anything after the 1/8th mile, the hemi is hard to beat. it was built for the 1/4 mile.

Yes BIG CUBIC inches engines does the talking, l will give the HEMI big block, 10 out of 10, the FORD and the Chevrolet big cubic inches were good but not good enough, the Chrysler HEMI if that's what you want to call it, was the king of the road, back then ,between 1967 and around 1972 , the HEMI was the one that, Chevrolet FORD, couldn't dominate in that era , but HEMI did get away with all that horse power before the restrictions were applied , THE FORD and the Chevrolet , losed out in that respect
