@@jennyc707 dude this chevelle makes maybe idk 500-600 hp to the wheels and weights a lot.

Because many test their cars at a garage. One of my neighbors does rally racing and works on Japanese cars. He has a garage he stores his cars (he owns atleast 4 cars he races)/ engine tuning at. Other work he does at home because he doesn't want to cause problems with his neighbors.

@Dave Micolichek they do alright if you get them out on the road obviously doing 1500 miles isn't city driving. But that's not daily driving, that's not a commute sitting in traffic, stop light to stop light, now fuel injection helps immensely but a carbuerated engine with that much cam, you can't cut the fuel back enough at idle to not hurt the engine, you hear these guys sitting at stoplights at cruises all the time they have to keep revving it up at lights to clear it out.
@Dave Micolichek that's a relatively mild cam so you can get away with that. My 302 had a full 3/4 racing cam trying to street it with my carberator that I raced was almost impossible. I always run Holleys, I had a 750 for the track to keep it fed at 8000rpm which was perfect but was completely unstreetable. I had to put a 600 on it to run it on the street for any amount of time. There's only so much adjustment in a carberator your jets set the base and you can't go below that. But the 600 wasn't enough for wide open at the track and I eventually would have burned a piston. I admit at the time I wasn't great with Holleys but I was good enough to get it running respectively, however my Grandfather IS an expert with Holleys and race engines and he always did my adjustments
I listen to this on repeat when I'm sitting in traffic. it almost makes you feel like you're sitting in the real thing except my Toyota Corolla doesn't have that much power when you rev it :(

As was mentioned above, there are those that disagree about the 69 vs the 70.....i'll just add that in my opinion, as far as straight up raw horsepower goes, both 1969 AND 1970 were the peak of the factory horsepower wars.....before OPEC and their BS, and the insurance industry and their gameplaying bs.

@M Diggingit You're right about the Falcon, but the supercharger was specially build for the movie, as a decoration. (scroll down til you see the picture of the engine/blower, the script above it says it all) www.hemmings.com/blog/2015/05/15/theres-only-one-original-mad-max-interceptor-and-its-not-in-australia/ I cannot remember who has it, but the original Interceptor was purchased a couple years ago, there was a video about it, & they spoke in depth about the fake supercharger. That video gave my soul diarrhea...
Joel Williams I believe the original falcon which was an xb falcon coupe that was used in mad max and the road warrior is now somewhere in Miami in a car museum, it should be brought back her to Australia where it belongs but atleast it’s alive
@M Diggingit I saw a cable show and there was a guy who actually owned one of the original "Mad Max" movie prop cars and yep, it was fake and had a switch to make it spin. His plan was to (in my opinion ruin the value and the car) pull apart the motor and put a real super charger in it. The guy's brother felt like I do and he said to his brother that he didn't care about the value or keeping the piece of memorabilia intact because he had no intention of ever selling it.
I reckon that people with obnoxious sound systems would use that to their advantage to make their grocery-getter Toyota sound meaner than it actually is... Although, that can be done without a playlist anyway Im taking this comment too literally 😃
To me the greatest sound in the world is that high pitched whistle whine of the air being pressed out from under the blower belt, that only gets louder the faster the engine is turning!! You only hear it on true blower engines.....as the wide belt is what causes it!! One day a couple of summers ago, I was in medium traffic, in Endicott NY behind a couple cars at a stop light and I heard that sound. I turned to my lovely lady and asked "Do you hear that high pitched whistle?" and she had just enough time to mutter the words yes and look at me, as I replied two words "Blower whine!", and suddenly "the BARKING ENGINE got extremely loud as we both stared towards on coming traffic in the next lane over!!!!! I am not sure exactly what year it was...but it was probably a Chevelle or Malibu from the early 1970s flashed by us in the opposite direction like shoot from a gun!! And all I saw was the flash of chrome, heard the sounds and watched as the car with NO HOOD blew by pipes thumping out a beat as it went! She got a much better look than I did, as I was still more focused on traffic, and as the car rumbled away, she said to me "Is that what was making that whine?" as the sound of the supercharger vanished as fast as the car did!! And I smiled and shook my head!! The only other sound like that, that gets my attention is that of jet engine whine!!! Don't know why I love it so much....but I am certain it is a range you will always remember!!
Good thing he's in Florida, I met him when he still had the nitrous system on it. Real nice guy, we did a poker run together and he did a dyno run right before me, but was having some sort of issue. Him and his gf put that wrap on in the garage.
This thing is sinister, excellent craftsmanship. Guaranteed to scare Grandma's and small children. Hell, I've got a blown Elky and a C5 vette and I think I peed a little when it fired up!
That sounds really nice not too high pitched or obnoxious, doesn't overpower the sound of the engine or sound goofy like a lot of blowers do especially Dodge
Good grief what a beast! Doctor, I don't have an irregular heartbeat, I am a true muscle car guy! Listen to this? See, I am perfectly tuned & in time! No coffee needed with a guy living next door with this in his driveway!
Fred C I agree. It's a sign that it's not tuned right. It doesn't bother me that it is surging, it bothers me that something that built isn't tuned correctly.
Blower surge is one of those hot-rod dynamics that presents a paradox to enthusiasts. In one ear it sounds like the engine is struggling if not defective. Then the other ear is treated to a throbbing cadence of performance pulses that help define a unique cool factor that not everyone understands. On one hand blower surge can be so smooth and melodic that it’ll put a crying baby to sleep. Or it can also drive a sane man into paranoia. “It’s typical that the guys who have it, don’t want it,” says Ron Hayes of The Blower Shop. “And the guys that want it, can’t get it.”
By definition, blower surge is a rhythmic acceleration and deceleration of engine speed at idle. It’s prone mostly to V8s that are force-fed with a large Roots-style supercharger. Granted, an uneven idle condition can be found in many different engines. Most of those are simply out of tune or suffering from a major malfunction, like an improperly installed camshaft.
So what really is blower surge? “It’s cycling between rich and lean conditions at idle,” explains Hayes. “You typically see it more with mechanically injected engines versus carburetors, but they both surge.” On a mechanically injected engine, which is the fuel delivery on the Mopar engine in the above video, when the engine richens up, the idle drops. As the idle speed goes down, the fuel pump, which is driven by the engine, doesn’t send as much fuel to the engine. That means the motor leans out slightly, increasing the RPM.
