You guys arguing about how much horsepower it had and what was quicker new or old. WHO CARES! It's the nostalgia that counts here! It's a 426 Hemi with a pistol grip shifter in a car that is fun to drive! It might not be the fastest car on the road, but it's no slouch either! It'll hold it's own.
@@mikehocking4836 I see I have another uneducated gearhead who doesn't understand the difference between GROSS and NET horsepower, so here it goes.....the 425 horsepower rating was GROSS dyno hp with no belts, muffler, or are filter.....with those items put on in the car the REAL NET HP drops to 350---starting in 1972 ALL cars have to be rated NET.....in 1972 the 426 in the MOPAR PARTS catalog was listed at 350 NET. The 440-6 was, and is only 325 NET. The 2022 Dodge 5.7 is 375 NET-----MORE than the 426 or 440-6. YOU ARE WRONG--I AM RIGHT. The 426 Hemi is only 350 horsepower----Todays class is dismissed.
@Car Guy daddyo Do you know how to read? I already explained the difference between GROSS DYNO horsepower and NET (real) horsepower. Even at 491 HP on a dyno "with proper tuning" is still only 402 HP AT THE CRANK installed in the car...that is only 27 Hp more than a 2021 5.7 at 375 net. My numbers are 100% correct.
Arguing about "how much horsepower" this thing had is redundant. It was certainly higher than what the factory rated it, approx 480-500, more if you beef it up. But there is simply NOTHING on the road today, not even a 1000-hp new Challenger that can TOUCH the way these brute engines sounded. I know, because I own a 440 and its a beast. Not the fastest car whatsoever, but the cool factor is off the scale.

@@cjs9477 WRONG on all levels....the 1970 426 Challenger was 3750 lbs easy.....426 NET horsepower was only 350. Quarter mile stock 13.6 tops. 1970 440-6 was 325 NET horsepower 1/4 mile 13.9 stock. 2021 RT is 4300 lbs running 5.7 with 375 hp NET. 1/4 mile 13.8........2021 SRT 485 hp NET is 12.7 1/4 mile. The little 1970 Dodge Dart with 340 was 3175 pounds by the way!
@@cjs9477 Yes but the fans of these old cars constantly lie about the horsepower and 1/4 mile times. The old cars were over rated in horsepower and were not that quick. And build quality and reliability was horrible. Racing schools would destroy these in 6 months....now 2021 Challenger Hellcats stay in the racing school fleet for years. This video is also lying about horsepower....the 525 rating is GROSS--that means a bare engine out of the car with nothing on it. The NET horsepower with belts, muffler, air filter----figure 430 NET. Any Mustang GT, SRT, or Camaro SS puts out far more 460+.... If I recall right, most 72-74 had the 318/340 V-8 and was about 3400 pounds....the base 6-cylinder was 3200 pounds.

Now they want to slow down all the gas station pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on....
