I'm really torn on this one, its a tough choice for me being I'm from the old school.

If it was the right car it would definitely be old school. Not about the hp, it's about the ride.

 

[dodge boy]

Those old Hemis really had their own special appeal to them, much different than today's Hemis.

 

[jkelly16]

Unfortunately I can't afford one of the old Cuda's with one of the Hemi's so I guess I'll stick with my ride.

Had one of the 426s already so I guess its the 392 for me.

If I had an old 426 I'm sure would have never gotten rid of it. They had a roar to then that was unforgettable.

You would if you put #5 rod through the block and wiped out a head at the same time.

That new 392!

They were definitely temperamental, no question about that. :att:

I would like the new with the sound of the old please.

You are right about the roar, even at idle they shook the ground, one thing lacking in todays muscle although the Hellcat sure has a good rumble.

 

[SteveHarley]

Both of them will do just fine.

I wish Mopar could bring back the old sound.:smileup:

 

[245pacer]

Old one in a 68 notch back barracuda please . :Wow1: :3-smoke:

 

[TorredCanuckRT]

My sentiments exactly.

Agree X100. I put on the blastin bobs straight pipes, so it has a nice growl, but i still want to shake the house. Maybe for my next project ill pick up an old dart demon and put a blown 426 in it. Right after I hit the lottery that is.

Back in the old days you always new when a 426 drove by, you didn't even had to look.

 

[Scat Pack]

I would go with the old Hemi though I'm not keen on the '62 through '65 bodies.

 

[cdahl383]

Old school all the way!

But if there was a third option...BOTH...I would pick that one, love the new ones too!

For anyone who races now its a no brainer on which engine is the better choice but back in the mid 60's the 426 was ahead of its time.
