    The Mercury Racing 1650 was already sick but the rigging of such a beast under the hood of that car was just amazing. Absolutely flawless welds on both ends of those turbos. Dad and I really enjoyed this great car and video together... My dad isn't doing too good so it was great quality time. Thanks guys.

      Mercury just came out with a 1750 motor so the Unlimited race class might get faster next year.

  •  5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    They didnt even touch on the most interesting part of the engine! I guess they didnt want to overly promote Mercury Marine and more just focus on the build aspects.. lol.. But the coolest part of that motor is the custom quad cams! dohc on both heads! Amazing head work and design by Mercury Marine to incorporate dohc heads on a V8! Obviously that thing must breathe AMAZING! Kinda like 2 k20 heads on a v8 block! Always dreamed about that! lol.. Awesome stuff.

    • @Power5
      @Power5 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      They call it a quad cam, but that is a bit of a misnomer if you ask me. It is a DOHC on each head. That is still just a DOHC. Or are they trying to say that in a 90 degree V engine layout, the 2 cams on top of the other head are still somehow over the head of the other bank? You have the block, then a head, and then the cams. The cams are over the head, hence the term Over Head Cam. Not over the head and off to the side by 2 feel Cam. That is why Ford calls the mustang engine a DOHC V8. Surprised they haven't jumped on the Quad Cam name bandwagon. They are missing out on the easy money afforded by people who instantly believe more is more. :)
      Still an awesome engine.

    • @Power5

It fine man, I actually also assumed it was like the same thing as the Ford Modular motor as well, and it shares similarities obviously, but Mercury Marine just took the technology and innovation to a whole new level here and did some amazing work to produce a motor like this that can make 1500whp barely batting an eye lol...

    I cannot tell you how perfect this car is. Even though it has crazy power, these guys still managed to used dials and switches, which, for some reason, has been faded out by cringe screens. I love the wheels, the look, the carbon, the power, the interior, everything. It is just a breath of fresh air to see something done exactly how I would. Seeing someone mod a car but still calling back to the 70s with the dials and gages is just so beautiful. Great work, it embodies everything I would love in a car.

      I agree; even though they mentioned it is aluminum, the finish looks like cheap plastic .
      Same with some of the interior details .
      Not uncommon these days, think Ikea .
      It seems to me they took a great looking car shape, and don't quite have the design skills to get the small things right .
      And that interior, and the name ...

      well thanks man. We forgot to mention the rims, they also don't fit :D The interior is ok though, I get that they went without radio and glovebox, but I would have included that, making that big panel open. But as this is not going to be someone's daily driver, it doesn't really matter.

    While I'm glad there are folks out there like these guys, and they certainly have built something special which showcases their talent, it just doesn't do it for me. I'm a big Mopar fan, but a car that has so much horsepower you can't put your foot down for fear of spinning out sounds like more worry than usable fun. 1650hp is impressive just like 1000hp is but these numbers are getting silly and I have to wonder if they are overcompensating for something? To each their own, and it does look great but not my taste.

    There are some cars that don't deserve to be body modified. The 68-70 Charger is one of them. They looked demonic. This one looks tame from front and back compared to how it used to. At least the side it looks good save for the lowering of it to a rather ridiculous amount. Why do people who have money just sink so much money into a car that reduces it's value when you go beyond reasonable.
