      @@destructoidx99 Well there is one glaring difference. Gross hp vs Net hp. We will have to speculate how much the 426 Hemi really made back in 1966. By 1971, it was 350 hp net, still a considerable number, but no 425hp as advertised. The lower-output 440 - 4V, which although rated at 335 gross hp, made only 220 net hp. Today, the Coyote 5.0L in the Dark Horse is 500 net hp, no turbo/SC, purrs like a kitten, doesn't need to be tuned up after sitting in grid lock all week, and mpg a '66 Beetle was lucky to get. Heck, a 3.6L Pentastar V6 puts out close to what the '71 426 Hemi made. 305hp vs 350hp

    My dad was always a GM man before the war, but when he came home in late1945, he bought Ford trucks because his tank had the Ford GAA (there were several other engines in the Sherman). He still was a Cadillac man for cars, but always bought Ford trucks exclusively for the family business.

    My Grandfather, who was high up in Ford Engineering in mid 60's, bought a 65 Parklane with this engine. I liked the rear window that retracted. I spent many Sundays at FoMoCo employee events on Sunday's throughout the 60's at Ford Engineering grounds on Michigan Avenue, the best memories being the return of the GT-40's after winning Lemans.; I still have a copy of blueprints of Michigan Ave. when it was constructed, facilitating the move from Livernois Mercury Plant. I bid on job of redevelopment of that Mercury property in 2002. My Mother had a picture of me behind wheel of Lemon winner after it rolled off trailer at a Sunday Ceremony. Those were memories that I cherish this day. He also had quite the hand in 65 Indy winner engine and 351 Cleveland heads. I miss him Dearly.

      America also still to this day produces the largest V8's with the smallest power output in comparison to European engines with the same displacement. It's not a bad take. It's not even a hot take. It's litteraly been like this, since you guys made chevy's and it's STILL like this today. I've seen V8's having 200 something horsepower.

    • @wilburfinnigan2142
      @wilburfinnigan2142 หลายเดือนก่อน

      RS-vu3df.. The GAA was developed as a V12 Aircraft engine by Henry Ford to compete with the RR Merlin he had been asked to build for the Brits but REFUSED and offered a simplier version, and the Allison V1710. all those engines were limited to 3,000 RPM because even geared down props tips break the sound barrier, get noisy and loose efficiency, why those large engines were turned slower. The GAA V8 tank engine was adopted from the V12 aircraft by loping off 4 cylinders, there was also a V12 version for later larger tanks. In war time you have to move quickly, you use what you have or can adapt in a hurry and that is why the GAA tank engine was DOHC 4 valves per cylinder and turned 2600 RPM. industrial and war machines are made to last, not develop a lot of screaming RPM's !!! Look it up, Google is your friend at your finger tips.
