1958 Dodge 700 Truck - Junkyard Crawl
Like when they find Chevy 400s in the junkyard today, old-school hot rodders get all misty-eyed at sights like this. It's a 354-cube "whale motor" that's rated at 180 hp thanks to lame Stromberg two-barrel induction. But there's a Top Fuel contender waiting to be released; just ask Don Garlits. We've also seen crazy dual inline two-barrel induction setups on stone stock Dodge Hemi trucks. Truck mills like this are a notch better than pass-car stuff thanks to closer scrutiny of tolerances, hand-selected reciprocating parts, and adjustable rocker arms.
