    That will be based on the old 392ci Hemi. Forgot about that, and I used to be a member of the Chrysler Club!

    They went 356 ci in '53 to 392 ci in '58 and 426 ci in '64 for the Hemis. The "wedge head" aka "magnum" motors went from 361ci, in '58 to 383 ci in '66 and 440 ci in '67. The anomaly was the '58 350 in the Plymouth Fury which was fuel injected. The Hemis all had twin 4bbl Carters "Thermo Quads" and the "wedge heads" all had single 4 bbl carbs. The "Magnum" package consisted of 3 two bbl Carter Carbs on a semi highrise Edelbrock manifold. You used the centre carb until you opened up, then the outer two would come in.

    The new Charger's grille is based ironically on the Aussie Valiant Charger. You've probably heard of the E-49, but they also produced the E-55 which was powered by the 340 ci "magnum" small block Dodge Challenger motor.

    Here's the second generation Dodge Charger from '67. They began in '66 as a fastback Dodge Coronet:

    The only cars to really capture my imagination are these two, the silver beast is a concept car - Chevy Camaro
    The wine coloured one is the Holden Efijy, I am not sure if it's a production vehicle, or a nother concept/special, but the lines on these two are hot

    for me its the Bugatti Veyron, its capable of more than 400 km/h, is driven by a 16-cylinder mid-engine, that at 710 mm long is no larger than a conventional V12 unit, and due to its lightweight construction weighs only about 400 kilos. Its compact dimensions are due to the unique arrangement of its cylinder banks in a W configuration. Two VR8 blocks, each with a fifteen degree bank angle, are joined in the crankcase to form one engine. Both eight cylinders are set at an angle of ninety degrees to each other and are aspirated by a total of four exhaust gas turbochargers. The engine delivers 1001 HP at 6,000 r.p.m. and provides a maximum torque of 1250 Newtonmetres at between 2,200 and 5,500 r.p.m.

    Wow what a monster

    And it needs how many radiators to dissipate the heat produced?

    And each one is sold at a loss dispite the large price tag.

    Now that Holden would be cool if it ever went into production. This is their latest offering - The E series HSV GTS:

    Not bad - 20" wheels etc, but the price tag of $74,995 AUD is a bit rich for a Holden. I mean, a new Chrysler 300 running the 5.8 ltr Hemi V8 is only $59,995 AUD and that's imported from the US.
