Description
Contents: Pump Gas Drags (The 5th Annual HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags, presented by Comp Cams, was the best one yet, even if the finals were delayed a day by rain); Speed Demon (Ron Main’s wicked, four-cylinder Salt Flats streamliner raises the bar and goes for 400 mph); Miller Cup Racing (We get in way over our heads by competing in the Ford Racing Mustang Challenge for the Miller Cup road-racing, a new FR500S Mustang. Witness our rookie mistakes) Hot Rod Garage – Crate Engine Comparo (The biggest, gnarliest crate engine thrash ever! We swap eight different GM Performance Parts crate engines into one car over four days and run each one down the track. Here’s everything you need to know when it comes time to buying a GMPP crate engine); Header Shootout (Using a 700hp 540 Chevy, we test a bunch of different headers to show how primary pipe and collector sizes make a difference in power); The New 409 (The Chevy 348/409 engine was a dead player in terms of today’s performance, but it has a new lease on life with Edelbrock’s cylinder heads and modern technology) Departments – Starting Line; Second Opinion; Bench Racing; Where It All Began; Roddin’ At Random; Test And Tune; Pit Stop; World; Finish Line
