Oldsmobile's 'HEMI'
« on: May 15, 2020, 05:11:09 PM »
Boys,
For those who have never seen or heard of this before, here is an experimential Olds 'HEMI' engine that was proposed for possible production. It was rumored to have made over 500 HP with the Q-Jet carb! Enjoy!

1968 Olds 442 W-30
1969 Mustang Fastback w a Can-Am 494 (Boss 429)

Good question. I have no clue. Allegedly there were also aluminum blocks and heads made too. Very rare.

Those crazy 4 cam pontiac engines and all the rest of the experiments in the 60's were ahead of their time.
