hi all,
I am from Germany and live close to Berlin.
I have a 1969 Dodge Polara since 2010. I bought it in Texas and shipped it to Germany. I sold the engine. It was a 440 Indy racing engine. After that I ordered a new Hemi 572. Not a crate engine. I bought every part allone and took it together. after 2 years of testing now the polara finally runs. My brother told me that there is a C- bodys only forum in the states and you might be intresstet.
It was a lot of work to fit the engine in the polara. We need to build the headers on our own and a lot of other stuff. For example I have no power steering and no brake booster because the engine won't fit. Its a manual valve body, 727 heavy duty transmission, dana 60, locar shifter, 2x 750 cfm Holley Double Pumper.
This summer I have made the first test runs on track. But I didnt go over 5000rpm and on the follwing youtube movies I have had 2x 600 cfm edelbrock carburators running on the hemi.
