    I had a 1969 RRunner ,Torqueflite, 4.10 Dana. Bought it new. Hit the gas and it BOILED the tires and went nowhere. At the track I even rolled it out off the line and as soon as I stood on it, smoke and no go. Put 7" M & H Slicks on it. Nothing else. Power braked it and stood on the gas at the green. Left it in "D". 12.87 @ 111.00. Through the factory mufflers. You cannot drag race a Hemi on street tires.......Even the "docile" street Hemi.

    The problem with ranking them like this is it's based on one or two road tests of each vehicle from back in the day. Entertaining but way to many variables to really take this seriously. Cars were not setup the same, various track conditions existed, state of tune varied from one car to another, and even the magazine's own test drivers ability makes this this comparision kinda pointless. Some of these cars were flogged pretty hard before whichever enthusiast magazine of the day even got a hold of them and laid down some numbers. All I'm saying is don't take these old et's for gospel.

      @cutlets6152 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Many of these cars knowing a magazine was going to test them, had factory "go overs" where they altered the car that you could not get off the show room.
      A friend of mine had a 383 68 Road Runner. It was much faster than any Road runner encountered with my 68 Mustang Cobra Jet. I beat him by half a car where others I raced were like 3 to 5 car lengths away at the end of the quarter. When we took off the air cleaner, underneath it was scrawled in magic marker, "you're welcome" with a guys signature.
      Who knew what they did to this car at the factory but it was definitely not your average 383.

    My outright favorite Hemi powered Mopar back in the 60s and 70s would be the Dodge Daytona Charger, with its big assed wing, followed immediately by the Plymouth Superbird with its also huge rear wing. For a slightly more demure look I am split between the Hemi Challenger and the Hemi 'Cuda almost equally. As for the Road Runners and GTX vehicles with Hemo engines, gosh, I guess you could convince me to get into one also. There is not a bad or undesireable car in the bunch - and not jus tbecause of the Hemi engine.. The 440 6 pack engines were also very powerful, as is the 440 4v engines. The 383 engines were adequate when it came to performance, but are smoked by their larger 426 and 440 engine equipped cars. Still, I would be fine with a 383 powered Mopar, they are not exactly slouches and can be built into some really powerful engines.

    graduating from Nebraska ROTC in '69, went downtown to replace my MGB and intended to buy a 340 Dart. Saw a 69 Charger, realized it wasn't much more expensive, so ordered a base green, white stripe, no radio, just the 727 Torqueflite transmission, with the 440 engine. Hemi was a $770 option. Drove it about 35 K miles, mostly in speed unlimited Germany for a year. Put "mag" wheels on it, and it would not make one full stop from 100 mph even with the 3 inch Imperial drums. I never went over about 105 or so, was just too scared to do more. When the salesman asked if I wanted the Hemi, I asked if they shipped the extra engine to me in a box, or how did I get the 440 motor. I thought i got two motors for my $770. Salesman asked if i had ever bought a new car before, because I didn't get both motors. Put an Offy intake on it, the cast iron was almost too heavy to lift off the engine. Made up my own gaskets, taping shoe box cardboard together with masking take, and it was running well when I sold it to a solder who promptly went off the Autobahn in Germany. Fond memories..... .

    Hemi Darts were fast because virtually all were set up from birth to go drag racing. Light and with an ability to rev quickly and get into the HEMI engine's power band quickly the Dart had potential to be a wicked fast car when set to go drag racing. The bigger cars not-so-much. Most ran harder with 440 and it's bigger, flatter torque curve in the low mid range. This shouldn't be surprising at all. The 426 Hemi was optimized for NASCAR racing. Richard Petty never cared if his race car made good power under 4,000RPM. He never saw that range anywhere on the track. Entrance and exit from the pits he'd see it for but a few seconds. ON the street though......you better care. In a street race I'd never bet on the Mid to Full sized Hemi car to beat a similar sized 440 car.

    I had a '69-GTX w/ 440, 4-sp, 4.10 super drag-pack Dana 60, and Doug Thorley headers. I owned it in 1970. Fastest car in my H/S, as well as the neighboring H/S. Man! I wish I still had that car! Later, I had a '65-Vette Coupe, 327/350 L-79 engine, 4-sp, 3.73 posi rear, and factory AC.
    Gorgeous car, but nothing like that GTX as far as pure muscle.

    I had to watch just to let you prove you don't get that all your 'fast' numbers are actually a measure of acceleration times (quickness). I do agree that for acceleration @markdubois4882 is right about the 68 Barracuda & Dart Hemi cars being #1 & #2.
