Re: NHRA Penalizes the HEMI again!



yes, plus she posted the first sub 8 second time. (already been done in the NMCA series).  If not more weight, I suppose they will kill it with an RPM limit, just like they did to the pro stock Mopars.

Apparently, even with the added 50 lbs, Leah Pritchard, AAF driver blew everyone away in a Demon.

The Hemispherical Head was developed by Hall Scott Motors early 1900’s.

They built aircraft engines and engines for PT Boats during WWII.  Chrysler was working with them during the war effort.

All the young mechanics were hired by Chrysler after the war and they became engineers for Dodge and felt why not hemispherical heads for cars, worked on the Hemi design and started with the Wedge head, became known as the Ramchargers and raced on the weekends took what they learned to use in the auto industry.

They used the torque and hydro trans technology to developer the Torqueflight transmission.  First the 61 Dodge Pioneer with long Tunnel Ram then my 1962 Dodge was the culmination of what they learned in the late 50’s early 60’s.  And my Dodge was born with 727 Torqueflight possi suregrip differential teamed up with the Crossram Max-Wedge and blew the doors off everyone for several years.  Thus the Muscle Car Wars began.

Started at Hall-Scott.  Hall-Scott truck engines were good to 1 million miles.  At 1 Million miles you brought your truck to the Berkley plan and they would rebuild it at no cost.

They had all the super developed metals, benel, magnesium, titanium, beryllium alloys.  Light weight and strong.  There are probably blocks of those metals in your grandfathers tool box.  It’s because he could machine those super hard metals he became special as. Machinest.

It all started in Berkeley drifted to Chrysler with the young Ramchargers and it continues today.

That Polara is special in many ways.  The forerunner to the Hemi.  The Hemi is King.

Sad, kind of like our politics. If you can't beat them by the rules, then you change the rules. The Governing body must be full of liberals.
