Transforming A Late Model Hemi Into A 426 Street Fighter - Engine Power S1, E15

Finally! 7:00 "Once reaching the first click on the wrench, STOP" It drives me crazy when someone double clicks the torque wrench. I got my rear end handed to me by our instructor for doing the double click thing. His reason was twofold. First accuracy and because of the reason I gave him that I wanted to make sure I actually got it to click the first time he chewed on me for not having any confidence in myself.

[@noneofyourbusiness7600]

@@jeremylakenes6859 I'm with ya. But, I'm actually going to go test this in my shop later.. I will measure the length of two bolts "cold" torque them, click one once, the other twice and hell, maybe I go for a third bolt and click 3 times.. And then re measure stretch and see if there is any change. The torque is only a less accurate way of achieving an appropriate "stretch" on the bolt..

[@frankmc5112]

@@antilaw9911 That's true. Ford Modular 4Vs make that power and they are 4.6l. 2003 Cobra with a Whipple blower swap on E85 makes that. That's a lot of money for that engine to only make nearly 800 hp. The new Coyote's can do that power on pump gas. Check out Whipple's site.

[@2K-Tan]

@@frankmc5112 Yeah and all Coyote's sound like shit. So I'll spend a bit more on a Hemi and enjoy the soundtrack. But that's just me. A Coyote is also an DOHC, 32 V completely modern V8 with direct and port injection. The DOHC setup gives it quite the breathing advantage over an old school pushrod engine like an LS or Hemi. The Modular 4V's ain't bad but I'd still rather have an LS or Hemi. Just never been a Ford guy I guess. I'd take a Boss 302 or a 5.0 HO anyday of the week though. Legendary.

[@LEGOCAMARO]

Those cylinder head are way overkill for the cam there using. And the”Race only supercharger” can only max at 700hp why not put a Whipple over 1000 easy 1200 on race gas.

[@thejunkmanlives]

@Justin Schooler you need to teach them that it is a tool(an extremely powerful one) and how to use it. if they are young enough u can throttle down how much of it they use and again teach them how to use it. they need to understand that most of social media is phony. but again this goes with my first post. YOU are the parent. YOU set the standard.

[@thejunkmanlives]

@Justin Schooler when i deal with kids on a daily basis, and these same kids talk to me before their parents i think i can easily speak on the subject. the trick is you need to be informed on their world. when my aunt just recently started using youtube she is not equipped to deal with her grandkids internet usage. but when i know what streamer the kid watches and what games he plays he is less hesitant to listen to me cause he knows i understand what hes dealing with which makes it easier for me to steer him in terms of content and usage. when i tell him something is phony hes more likely to say "ok he knows about this stuff" instead of "hes old he doesnt understand". again, its about effort.

[@rabenracing6093]

I’m gonna catch a lot of hell for saying this, but while this 426 is making decent power, 780hp is a disappointing number for what this combo is. Stock 6.4 hemis with a supercharger have been proven to make 800+ hp. That combo could make 1000+ reliably if it had a bigger cam to match the cylinder heads. Stock gen iii heads flow better than any stock LS or Coyote heads, which can support over 1000hp with boost. A bigger cam ground for a boost and more boost would turn that thing into an LS and Coyote killer. However, I’m not gonna let that take away from the fact that it was assembled very very well and I bet it’ll run forever like that

I think they reached the limits of the particular blower they were using. The head flow is there to make more power.
