hemi bee was almost a second faster
Mopar hemi will stomp all over the vette
No way! Line em back up
Sweet Super Bee.
Since the Super Bee is a 1968, how about run it against a 1968 L88 Vette? 426 vs 427, 1968 vs 1968. 1971 all the horsepower had been su ked out of the 454. Not even a close comparison. Smh
Ls6 70 model. 450 hp
You mean a 2 seat sports car VS a 6 seat Muscle car ??? Cry baby Gov Motors Loser LOL !!!!!
A short fiberglass light weight 2 door 2 seater sports car vs a long body all steel 5-6 seater muscle car. I get that they sucked some power out but its still a vet with a big block
Or put it up against a 70 LS6 Chevelle.
Wow!! I see the Mopar guys get a little whiney when you try and match up same engine/year cars. Lol. Even if you put the L88 in a Chevelle or Camaro, the result would still be a win for Chevy.
Erik Brink, they had the 454 till 1975. It was nothing but a iron brick after 1970. HP was down at least 50%.
Typical, the 1970 Chevelle LS-6 454 had to spot a Hemi Cuda a 10th of a second in pure stock NHRA
Just sayin you could also get the LS-6 in the vette in ’70 rated @460
Hemi!
Mike Coleman send him a email
And the bee is twice as long, and ALL STEEL….no fuckin glass there!
Mopar!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought it was going to boil down to horsepower/weight ratio.
The vetted should’ve beat the mopar,since short wheel base not fiberglass body with 454 ci. But that Hemi with top power always get the job done ,mopar or no car baby..
had a friend with a 69 roadrunner 383 magnum , go against a 454 69 chevelle ate that chevelle, an shit out a camaro 2 out of 3
Luv that Hemi power.
Enough said,smells like a victory to me
Okay, now let’s gp to the road racing course. Bye bye, Super Bee.
Figured the hemi would do the trick but the vette ain’t no slouch either. How about a GSX against the hemi next time?
A12 package 4spd
Victory baaaaby
Awesome
Hemi rules…. that sound….
Love them MOPARs. It’s Mopar or nocar for me. 22016 RAM REBEL & 2016 CHALLENGER Scatpack 507 hp!

Not fair, in 71 GM lowered the compression on all of their high performance engines while Mopar did not. The Hemi still has 10 1/4 to 1 while the Chevy had 8.5 to 1.
lemme drive the vette…..different story
