Man, that is a great video. I wonder when a couple of slant six cars are going to appear on Pinks!
I sent them an E-mail, offering my Cuda. Hell it's only bracket racing, with a distance spot instead of time. Any street racing I have ever seen is "heads up, run what you brung, and hope you brung enough." Never heard back. Guess it would be embarasing for the program, if I won.

Hey Charlie, why don't me and you race. Except that we agree to give our cars back to each after the race, just to show that we are sportsmen, not trash talkers.

Slants need some publicity.

I`ve never seen one of those upright sixes in a Mopar. It sure resembles GM type inline six. Right down to the tappet cover on passenger side.

Unfortunately no but i'll leave it up there for as long as the website exists or until they make me pay for bandwidth.

I used to host videos off my own wbsite but the bandwidth issues got out of control. I find Youtube a quick and easy way to share.

Actually I like living in the middle of no where......


The filedownloading may be slow here,,,,,but the morning commute is WAYYYYYY fast. My GF just had "Z" rated tires with new alloy rims put on her Talon AWD TSI today......she commutes 22 miles of mountain road in about 17 mins.....yikes!

That video loaded up on my 36k dialup in about 20 minute. Worth doing....

It's funny you know, I live in a country town of around 2000 people and I have broadband (although its frequently called Fraudband because it's still not as fast as they advertise). You would think that in the US you could get Broadband just about anywhere and it would cost practically nothing. I pay $50/month for mine but it's necessary for me because I work from home.

I have DSL and cable available. The cable company is for the birds. The phone company, wants you to purchase a "bundle" of phone services. Either of them would cost me an additional $300 per year. I did try DSL, on a 30 day free trial, and the service was down about 15% of the time, and their customer service was almost nonexistant. So I'll save the money for my slant.

I did not know that the bellhousing pattern was same for the 245/265 and LA engines.
No I know, thank you.

Blownhemi, thats what I'm talking about, 11 sec turbo six, way to go.

Kent, I'm a no beliver of "can't do", everything is possible right.
Have there been people on the moon? Yes, so a 833 will bolt up to a rocket engine if you put your mind to it.
They told me I could not build a competitive Super Stock engine by my self, I proved them wrong and it's just hard work.

Please keep in contact about sharing a pallet from australia loaded with hemis :D

Take care guy's

They aren't exactly the same. The locating dowels for the trans are in the wrong position and about half of the bolts line up. There are Hemi's that do have the LA V8 Pattern but they are highly sort after. I've got a 904 bolted up to mine but I'm using an adaptor plate which does the job nicely. It's also a pain in the butt to hook up the kickdown but I run a full manual shift in the 904 to solve that problem.

While you're buying stuff from Austrailia anyway, this place could hook you up with a bellhousing for almost any engine/transmission combo you could think of: http://www.rodshop.com.au/
