Everything It Takes To Machine a 1968 Chrysler 440 V-8 Engine
We're back working on Snowball's 1970's-era dirt track racer by taking our 440 V-8 Chrysler engine to the machine shop. Jon at Apex Competition Engines has taken on the task of walking through the process and getting everything ready for us. Hopefully this vintage race car is back on the track sooner rather than later!
