top 20 V8 engines of all time…
The early Hemi shouldda been number one hands down, 100%.
Performance potential - NO other STOCK Chrysler crankshaft has the ability to withstand over 1,000 horse power. ALL the early Chrysler Hemis could.
Historic Significance- Really? Do I have to explain this one? Look at what Don Garlits did with STOCK hard parts with the 392. He didn't just set records, he CREATED them.
Looks cool - Again, nothun, but NUTHIN looks cooler than an early Chrysler Hemi. Not even 2nd gen motors.
Affordability to build today - Again, right in line with a Chrysler big block. I oughtta know, I am building one.
Easy to work on - If you can do an oil change, you can work on an early Chrysler Hemi.
IMO opinion it should have been more like:
1) Early Chrysler Hemi
2) LA Chrysler
3) B/RB Chrysler
4) 2nd Gen Hemi
And all the rest of the garbage from here on out. Really? Did they rank the BB chebbie above the B/RB Chrysler? Obviously, their opinions are biased and skewed. Just ask anyone whose had their bb chebbelle's clock CLEANED by a 383 4 speed Road Runner. And let's not even talk about a 440 Six Pack or Hemi car. There was NO comparison. Bunch of retards.
