I have same truck as you.. In my neighborhood there is a Ram in every other driveway. Bad ass truck, my first full size. My 1st brand-new vehicle was a Dodge Dakota Sport w Magnum V-6, faster than all hell, could bury 125MPH Speedo fast. I hope your loving your Ram like I am. The day we got it my wife came home and said she had a Silverado who wanted a lil race, I told my wife I hope you raced, to my surprise my wife says " I kicked his ass" .. I wasn't surprised at the truck, I was surprised my wife raced him.
I gotta be honest: I love how Donut loves Dodge and Dodge loves Donut. I actually bought a Dodge Magnum because of this.... aaaaanyway, back to the show!
Growing up my family had a red '05 Durango with the 5.7 HEMI exactly like the one picture at 14:56. I learned to drive in that thing. We towed our travel trailer with the rango when i was younger. Since I was homeschooled we were able to take the camper up and down the entire east cost for weeks at a time while schooling on the road. So many good times riding in the backseat of the durango with the siblings during super long road trips. Once we legit took a month going to Disney world all the way up to Maine (with plenty of stops in between of course...). I never remember that engine struggling with a trailer filled to the brim with a homeschooled families stuff. Great episode, much love from Cincinnati.
After watching this hell of a history video of one of Dodge's most legendary engines, in the end, it left me thinking: "THEY ACTUALLY NAMED THAT DAMN THING THE HELLEPHANT"
3,400rpm on a prop plane in WW2 is actually quite high. Most german planes thrived at 2,500rpm-3,000rpm, whilst Merlin’s could handle 3,000. But a lot of axis engines would have issues above 2,700rpm aside from the one like Jumo 213E. You can only spin a propeller so fast before wit becomes inefficient, resulting in a loss of power or death of the engine.
@@oShoguno nah. I remember hemi cars getting train lengthed by 440 cars. Street hemi's were too choked. They need to be uncorked. Great racing engines.
Although it wasn't a Hemi car, my first ride was a 68 Charger and have been a Mopar enthusiast ever since. I currently own a Challenger SRT8, and is a total blast to drive to 💪🏼😎
My family car was a 2004 Dodge Durango Limited, we bought it in 2005 when I was 4 years and it's been my favorite car ever since. I'm not a huge car head but this Durango is built like a boat and there is nothing more fun than packing all my friends in it and flooring it on the interstate
That Chrysler powered monster made 138 decibels at 100 feet at full throttle, loud enough to cause permanent hearing loss if you were right next to it. Legend say you could hear it go off from 20 miles away. The closest an electric powered siren ever got to that record was 1981, when ACA introduced the penetrator 50, which due to it's heavy chopper, is powered by a 50 horsepower, 480 volt, three phase motor, it not only holds the record for the loudest electric motor powered siren, at 135 decibels at 100 feet, but also the loudest dual tone siren in the world. The Chrysler siren was 6 port single tone, the p50 was 8/12 port dual tone. Unlike the Chrysler sirens, which are practically extinct in service, the p50/rm135/t135ac, are still in active service in relatively large numbers
Btw the hellephant name isn’t random the nickname for the gen 2 hemi was the elephant so that’s where the hellephant came from if anyone was wondering.
Justin Case Clearly you have no fucking idea what you're talking about. The rocker arrangement is pure hemi. The head design is WAY more hemi than any car out now. The pistons still have a distinctive dish. Show me any modern engine with the hemis rocker arrangement. So fucking ignorant...
With the way Dodge is cranking out huge engines, were other manufacturers are cranking out 4 bangers. I can almost guarantee we will see a V-10, I bet they will even throw in a couple superchargers. It's sad when these days the other manufacturers give the smallest engines, you have to buy Chrysler products if you want a sedan, power and looks. Look at GM, they go and put a 2.7L in a Silverado??? Remember when Dodge put a Viper V-10 on a Motorcycle??
I want a Viper with a naturally aspirated, 8 liter, 10K RPM OHV V10 engine, if only as a proof of concept. It couldn't be any sillier than the Dodge Demon.
Kinda disappointed that they didn't mention the Hemi Pontiacs, after the Firepower was cut Pontiac requested hemi engineers from Chrysler to develop their own and Chrysler sent them over. They ended up developing an SOHC hemi V8 with them, and also built an OHV Hemi V8 with Mickey Thompson which is still alive today in Arizona!! Mickey sold the heads he designed with Pontiac and the hemi Pontiacs dominated all kinds of motorsports.
Thanks Brother... it was told me many years ago.. I grew up around Pontiac cars as a kid, my uncle loved that Tempest.. thanks for sharing one of Motor histories forgotten stories.. I own a Daily driven 68 Dodge Dart everyday and Everywhere.. someday I will own a 62 Tempest.. like the one my uncle built for me when I was 14.. my Mom said No.. I'll have her one day.. peace
I would have never known this about the name. As I don't study engines that much. But thanks to a wonderful production house in LA, I now know. Thank you so much guys. I will forward this video to all my Mopar pals. (:
Fun fact: The Hemi V8 was banned by NASCAR during the 1965 Grand National Series due to its speed. Chrysler responded by pulling their drivers out of the season and withdrawing their support. Great video 👍🏾👍🏾. Up To Speed: Plymouth Roadrunner.
As a staunch Chevy guy, I have to admit, when it comes to keeping the muscle in muscle car, dodge really is the only one doing it right. Making America look sexy and sound like a monster at the same time.
Interesting. I say the same thing every time I beat a Charger or Challenger R/T in my Fusion, except it goes something like, "You need mo' powah babeh!"
My dude....I love your shit. Watching your up to speeds feels like listening to a story my buddy really wants to tell me. You keep me enthralled the whole ass way through, and when the end comes I'm always surprised there isn't more. Good work guys, keep it up!
7:13 is totally my little baby Hemi I built sometime ago, that was pretty damn cool seeing it in your video. It was a 1953 Dodge Red Ram 241 Hemi, I got a whole series on the rebuild and it running with zoomies and even three deuces. Pretty cool to see the clip in this video.
4:43 - at 25,000ft there is the same percentage of oxygen as there is at sea level. Gas composition of the atmosphere doesn’t change with altitude until 196,850ft (60km). It’s the decrease in pressure that causes NA piston engines to struggle. Hence the need for a big old spiny boiii
Dodge: James what do we have to do to get you to have some videos about our company? Some legos and a sweater? Mr. Pumphrey: Mo money babah!!! damn autocorrect
That 4cyl hemi Is the G54B (2.6L) they used that engine in so many cars, including the Mitsubishi Starion. It came turbo charged with a whopping 140-170hp , but they do have decent torque figures. I have like 6 of these engines lol
@@thatoneathiestguy2752 meh Ford modular V8 sounds way more nasty. The Hemi to me sounds like typical V8, just like the LS. I like the sound of any V8 with a nice exhaust on it though so I'm not stuck on one brand. My brothers GT350 (the flat plane crank engine) sounds like a menace at 8000 rpm.
Just bought a gen 3 ram with the 5.7. Brand new pirellis on it and it’s still hard to not do a little burnout if you tap the gas too hard from a stop. Love this truck
@@trevoncowen9198 the p38 was super charged except for the exports. We didn't want the tech to fall into in the hands of the notsees. I didn't know they were injected too, though.
michael howell The Germans weren’t too worried about our P 38 turbo charger technology as they had a far superior system that used a hydraulic coupling also all European theater p38 had turbos as they were high altitude long range bomber escorts and the Supercharger system offered with the Allison engines did they use were not sufficient the turbos didn’t even match up but they worked they often over boosted the engines at lower altitude which is why they became really good ground attack planes the turbos were housed in the booms I really suggest A book called 100 years of aircraft or just googling it
Picked up a 2016 Police Charger AWD with the 5.7L Hemi. The launch on that thing is unreal. So much potential. Thinking I want to put a 392 stroker kit in it. Now that Dodge is retiring the Hemi, these cars will be quite the collector items.
I got a 2014 Charger RT AWD 5.7L Hemi. It was not a police car but the winter edition. I just love that car. And the fact that they officially where never sold over here (Germany) makes it even rarer...
As a religious watcher of this show, I think it’s only fair to say now that you have done one on engines I think I speak for the rest of the viewers when I say PLEASE DO A FRIGGIN EPISODE ON THE GM SMALL BLOCK (Gen 1-Gen5) ALSO RANDOM AF BUT MY GF BOUGHT ME A MO POWA BABEH TSHIRT AND I FRIGGIN LOVE IT. Also glad to hear your doing better James. I love you and your vids so please stay alive bc you are the only thing I look forward to on Thursday. DONUT RULES 💯🤙🏽🤘🏽
But everyone knows about SBC’s theres nothing to learn from watching a video, yeah, they’re great reliable basic engines that have been around forever, end of video..
I love my Hemi's, and I have owned 4.. 2013 5.7 charger, 2016 6.4 charger, 2017 Ram 1500, and currently 2019 Ram 1500... I do enjoy the 390 hp in the truck 5.7 vs the 370 the cars get.
Everyone complains about challengers not being able to handle. I feel like the big, boxy, heavy, design adds to that old classic muscle feel. I think the scat pack with the 6 speed is the perfect modern MUSCLE car. Big and heavy, lots of power from a big hemi V8. No supercharges or turbos just raw engine roar. Still the same beautiful cruising car. It never was meant to take corners at high speeds and put times on the track. It was built to give you the best muscle car experience.
They're not doing shit. Especially not anything reliable. There's a reason they're owned by a big parent company now. They're going the way of Pontiac.
The 5.7 Hemi in the 2011-2020 Grand Cherokee is extremely quiet and toned down a bit. You can see the giant intake resonator in front of the throttle body and the multiple mufflers. However, it still sounds pleasant in the cabin.

@@downupon The only thing useless in california are the voters
@@IN54ANE Close to everything, actually.
My dude....I love your shit. Watching your up to speeds feels like listening to a story my buddy really wants to tell me. You keep me enthralled the whole ass way through, and when the end comes I'm always surprised there isn't more. Good work guys, keep it up!
I own two Hemi Mopar's, very happy with them, like a 440 Magnum with reliability & great gas milage!
Me thinking of the thinnest steel: Thinner than a quarter of an atom, literally.
James: *Thinner*
Me : one tenth of an atom?
James : THINNER!
Chem major?
@@almightydiaz no
There is no atom of steel
Reminds me of an audi ad
You: immediately apparent
James, an intellectual: immediately a parent
just bought a Ram 1500 with a Hemi, I love the truck. It was nice learning about its history.
Good luck
It's funny that small soviet Moskvich 412 also have a HEMI engine in 60-s. But it was 91.5 cu inline 4 with 75hp
When I was little, I named my cat Hemi. She tore up our house as much as a Dodge Hemi tears up the American asphalt.
John Lenhof you should buy a hellCAT in honor of your former cat.. trust me, it’s what your cat would’ve wanted
@@hmackprotection1 lol
They just came out with the Hellephant in a new charger it's called
The Ghoul
$200,000
I will sell a kidney for this
You had me at came
🤡
That's fake
@@apexlucas it’s not fake
Simply put, one of the most iconic engines ever built
7:13 is totally my little baby Hemi I built sometime ago, that was pretty damn cool seeing it in your video. It was a 1953 Dodge Red Ram 241 Hemi, I got a whole series on the rebuild and it running with zoomies and even three deuces. Pretty cool to see the clip in this video.
⚡️love your videos⚡️
Nice job👍
Thanks guys
4:43 - at 25,000ft there is the same percentage of oxygen as there is at sea level. Gas composition of the atmosphere doesn’t change with altitude until 196,850ft (60km). It’s the decrease in pressure that causes NA piston engines to struggle. Hence the need for a big old spiny boiii
Thank you science man
Oh wait youre a pilot, so, thank you airplane man
Well why does altitude bother mountain climber so much
Pilot Joe nice now I’ve learned something today so it’s already a productive day.
MoPar Babeh
As in Mo powa (mopar) Babeh
I am so amazed with your team's imagination and vision for the videos you guys put out! Thank you guys for everything you do!!!
Dodge: James what do we have to do to get you to have some videos about our company? Some legos and a sweater?
Mr. Pumphrey: Mo money babah!!!
damn autocorrect
Pretty sure his name is pumphrey
That 4cyl hemi Is the G54B (2.6L) they used that engine in so many cars, including the Mitsubishi Starion. It came turbo charged with a whopping 140-170hp , but they do have decent torque figures. I have like 6 of these engines lol
Liar
@@AlexJasso100 about?
If they made a high strung hemi 4 cylinder and put it in a light, sporty vehicle, it might keep the Chrysler company from falling apart nowadays
I’ve got a Hemi2.6 badge glued to my old toolbox
HEMI POWER BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!
My gasssss mileage is asssssss but i love it
"Like my high school girlfriend came to me with Nolan and suddenly I became a parent"😂😂🤣🤣
Those HEMI's are the best sounding v8s...
I used to have a 454 with headers that sounded pretty good. But yeah, my current hemi sounds great too!
Nah the Ford V8s have the most violent sounds.
@@rxtuninginc8444 yeah but the hemi still sounds fantastic
@@thatoneathiestguy2752 meh Ford modular V8 sounds way more nasty. The Hemi to me sounds like typical V8, just like the LS. I like the sound of any V8 with a nice exhaust on it though so I'm not stuck on one brand. My brothers GT350 (the flat plane crank engine) sounds like a menace at 8000 rpm.
*4.6 GT has entered the chat*
This channel would be nothing without James. They need to give him a pay raise immediately
I swear I love their editing and then the personality just ties the knot
Just bought a gen 3 ram with the 5.7. Brand new pirellis on it and it’s still hard to not do a little burnout if you tap the gas too hard from a stop. Love this truck
Cooperate schilling aside: sending James a get well letter while he was out of commission WITH GIFTS!
Well done, Dodge.
"For the first time were dedicating an entire video to an engine"
Science garage on the rotary: am I a joke to you?
Wheelhouse with the LS
If I remember correctly they did an episode on the Cummins engine before this also
I think they meant the first "up to speed"
Please do a “Science Garage” episode for the HEMI engine
Just got my first Ram truck, now I’m obsessed with Dodge
Another amazing facts about American Fighter planes: the P-51 Mustang had Nitrous.
michael howell that was the mustang H I think and p38 was turbocharged with meth injection
@@trevoncowen9198 the p38 was super charged except for the exports. We didn't want the tech to fall into in the hands of the notsees. I didn't know they were injected too, though.
michael howell The Germans weren’t too worried about our P 38 turbo charger technology as they had a far superior system that used a hydraulic coupling also all European theater p38 had turbos as they were high altitude long range bomber escorts and the Supercharger system offered with the Allison engines did they use were not sufficient the turbos didn’t even match up but they worked they often over boosted the engines at lower altitude which is why they became really good ground attack planes the turbos were housed in the booms I really suggest A book called 100 years of aircraft or just googling it
Did you know that the supercharger in the hellcat takes 80hp to run not counting the 707 it already makes
@@hairychesticles1 I didn't know that
That sweater is so awesome!! So stoked to have you back James! 👌🏼
Nothing beats the sound of a good ole carb’ed classic V8 monster from the 60s
Picked up a 2016 Police Charger AWD with the 5.7L Hemi. The launch on that thing is unreal. So much potential. Thinking I want to put a 392 stroker kit in it. Now that Dodge is retiring the Hemi, these cars will be quite the collector items.
I got a 2014 Charger RT AWD 5.7L Hemi. It was not a police car but the winter edition.
I just love that car.
And the fact that they officially where never sold over here (Germany) makes it even rarer...
The most noteworthy thing I took from this video was the phrase "thiccity thicc boi". Worth it.
As a religious watcher of this show, I think it’s only fair to say now that you have done one on engines I think I speak for the rest of the viewers when I say PLEASE DO A FRIGGIN EPISODE ON THE GM SMALL BLOCK (Gen 1-Gen5) ALSO RANDOM AF BUT MY GF BOUGHT ME A MO POWA BABEH TSHIRT AND I FRIGGIN LOVE IT. Also glad to hear your doing better James. I love you and your vids so please stay alive bc you are the only thing I look forward to on Thursday. DONUT RULES 💯🤙🏽🤘🏽
*insert LS swap meme here*
But everyone knows about SBC’s theres nothing to learn from watching a video, yeah, they’re great reliable basic engines that have been around forever, end of video..
We need a Dodge journey with a hemi in it, it will be the ultimate sleeper
nowa epic fail
nowa won’t fit
I don’t know who your guys editor is, but give him a raise and never let him leave
I love my Hemi's, and I have owned 4.. 2013 5.7 charger, 2016 6.4 charger, 2017 Ram 1500, and currently 2019 Ram 1500... I do enjoy the 390 hp in the truck 5.7 vs the 370 the cars get.
I got my charger to 400 horses but that's not hard to do
The apparent/ a parent joke had me dying. Good to see you back James!
"Imagine the thinnest steel You can. Now
Thinner"

Hell Yeah!

COOOOOOMMMMM

You know you wanna see that lada up to speed
Damn right
I asked for it like 8 months ago
And dont forget moskvitch
Yep!
Yes e
Everyone complains about challengers not being able to handle. I feel like the big, boxy, heavy, design adds to that old classic muscle feel. I think the scat pack with the 6 speed is the perfect modern MUSCLE car. Big and heavy, lots of power from a big hemi V8. No supercharges or turbos just raw engine roar. Still the same beautiful cruising car. It never was meant to take corners at high speeds and put times on the track. It was built to give you the best muscle car experience.
Dodge just waiting for someone to beat the demon, so they can drop the hellephant in a production challenger and blow every one away again
Look up cobra jet
They're not doing shit. Especially not anything reliable. There's a reason they're owned by a big parent company now. They're going the way of Pontiac.
Look up f90 M5 walked the demon
@@marcoromero8144 I did and stock it's slower than a Demon.
Qugie th-cam.com/video/5mjuTVsRllc/w-d-xo.html you must be looking at hp specs when it comes down to the race the M5 takes it
Wish you buff horses health James ! Glad to see you back LOVE HEMIIIIIIII
Bring back “student Pumphrey”
That weird sounding James with the classroom background.
Yea
yea yea

I've been watching up to speed for a minute now,cant believe I didn't catch this earlier
CHEVY chase and Harrison FORD

pissed my pants laughing at the “ram charger” in the beginning
I think the 1000hrp hemi is cool but what if we put some upgrades to make even more POWA BABY!!!!!!

the thing about a 1000hp crate engine, is that it has that sexy warranty for your complete overhaul builds.

The 5.7 Hemi in the 2011-2020 Grand Cherokee is extremely quiet and toned down a bit. You can see the giant intake resonator in front of the throttle body and the multiple mufflers. However, it still sounds pleasant in the cabin.
