Pursuit Units may be intended to follow the Target Vehicle until it either Crashes or Runs out of Fuel. Thus Long Range Fuel Tanks may be part of its purview and sufficient speed for it to remain In Contact with the Target Vehicle. Physical Contact with the Target Vehicle is not intended. Intercepter Units on the other hand may have slightly less Range, but greater Power, since their purpose may be to Execute a P.I.T. Manoeuvre (precision immobilization technique) or similar, on the Target Vehicle. Because of the skill required to Execute such a Contact Manoeuvre, not only will the Driver be Better Trained, but because of the associated danger involved, be a Solo Officer. Additionally the front end of the Intercepter Unit may have some degree of structural reinforcement to better survive Physical Contact, with certain Critical Elements relocated into the rear storage compartment. It is also highly likely that it will have markedly better Braking than a Pursuit Unit. Max's Pursuit Intercepter was thus likely a hybrid of the Two Original MFP Designs.

The black Interceptor had the dumbest aero design ever. While the fastback line could make the tail spoiler work, the roof spoiler would totally break the streamline and become the only working spoiler on the vehicle. Idiot cars made by idiot mechanics for idiot audience.
The engine is a Ford 351 Cleveland, with cherry bomb mufflers. Very similar sound, if not exact, as the '68 Mustang in the movie Bullitt. That engine was a 390, also with cherry bombs. I loved the sound so much, I put cherry bombs on my first car, a 1971 Mustang with a 302. Great classic sound.
You're correct, but just for the chase scenes was the sound dubbed. Other scenes, like when Steve McQueen first notices the Charger is watching him, are the real sounds of the '68 mustang.
No it wasn't, it was the 390 with open headers, with the sound track taken at a raceway by the film crew. This was all well documented in the many articles about the cars, as featured in the many Muscle Car magazines of the 1980s. Everyone wondered why the Mustang was so slow. The stock 440 Charger was much faster. @@ismaeltorres5746

Absolutely love this movie takes me back to my childhood.....😁 the sound of those old thunderous v8s and the burbling is heaven to my ears😎 reminds me of the old rover sd1s back in the 80s
Sounds great through a home sound system. This was not the film that introduced me to the V8 however. That honour went to The Driver starring Ryan O'Neal released a year earlier, in 78. I currently have 2 V8 engined cars - An audi S4 4.2 and a BMW E39 M5 5.0 v8. Love them !
Never been much of a car guy but when Max's interceptor quietly pulls up on 0:30 & then you hear that throaty idle, you know the king of beasts has arrived... That's the sound!
I live on the Northside of Brisbane Australia, there's an exact replica of this car I see getting around every now and then. Even has the lights but has to cover them while driving.
My dad had a 1970 chevelle with a 402...it sounded just like that swear to god!!!!.. my dad and I both love this movie.. the rest of all the mad max movies were really wired.
You are not wrong. I need to find the info, but YES. The one of the mechanics said in an interview that he (or perhaps someone in the crew) owned I think a bigger engine car and used the sound of that for this scene. If you have never heard this trivia before, you have a very good ear to pick this up.
@@crazykellywfo4240 One of the pursuit specials is blowing blue smoke, revealing the piston rings were ready to go--likely the movie got a real deal on that one :) the blue panel van that gets smashed was the director's own vehicle--they ran out of budget by that time. but yeah, while the engine was probably started, they could have dubbed in a different sound. after all, the american version of this movie had Mel Gibson's lines dubbed by an actor doing dog food commercial voice-overs.
I have heard that sound so many times over the years working on cars, but it never gets old. Those old XA, B and C models all had a unique tone to them.
The director is genius, The muscle car pulls up for chicken. Pumping the throttle getting the revs up. Flash to old school cop car indicator lamps. Dropping the clutch, brutal holeshot, tires squeal. Then click on the siren. Quite a complex sequence.

Having watched this film years ago when I was literally a child and being 35 now I’m intrigued as to why toecutter was so crazy one minute and then turns to a bumbling wreck the next? Is it because Max didn’t back out of the ‘chicken’ challenge and he knew he was prob just as crazy as him? I’m curious as to why he turns into a complete cry baby.
Nightrider was playing with the other cops. They could barely keep up and he could just accelerate away whenever he wanted. Then Max rattles him with chicken, and the black Pursuit Special can't outrun the Interceptor. "It's going ... it's going ... there's nothing left." He's got his foot all the way on the floor and the Interceptor is gently nudging him, potentially pit manoeuvring the Pursuit Special into an accident at any moment. Whatever was left of his drug-induced bravado is washed away with fear.
They stopped building solid rocket boosters into cars shortly after that. Terrible track record of randomly igniting just as you were heading into a potential scrape.
