The real Chrysler built ones were the best, and the Fiat-built are probably better than these final French ones. What is wrong with the current HEMI is those oil spray jets that spray the underside of the pistons. They should instead have sprayed the cam, and that cam shouldn't have been placed so high up, and there are no oil spurt holes in the con rods. German "engineering".

Needs much more research- the Patton tank engines were made by Continental; v12s, but air cooled, and installed by Chrysler in the Pattons they built, as did Ford. This is the engine in Jay Leno's Tank Car. Chrysler did make a v16- inverted aero engine- it was experimental and didn't finish trials before WW2 ended; it is the "progenitor" of all Hemis- no mention of that one- the very first one!FR

In the early to mid '60s what I remember winning the AA/FD class, at the drag strip, were 392s. Oh you could run just about anything else but you just weren't going to beat any good 392 with it. Guys like Tommy Ivo that started with Buick engines eventually had to move to the 392 to remain competitive. The 426 Hemi only took over when they began advancing the timing way beyond what was healthy for the 392. Before they did that even the new generation Hemi wasn't competitive at first. Finally Chrysler factory sponsored Don Garlits tried to blow his 426 up in a fit of rage, by advancing the timing to 50 degrees and blew out the top speed and low ET records instead by 20 mph more and nearly a 1/3rd second less respectively.

He didn't want to drive back into town so he shimmed the bearing with a trimmed dollar bill and I listened to it run all summer while chopping weeds in the cotton. Not that it had to do with toughess but I thought it a pretty innovative fix.
