Angry Elephant: Dyno Video of Lee Sicilio’s Hemi Daytona LSR Car

BangShift.com

Our buddy Scott Clark, known as DieselGeek on the BangShift.com forums spends some of his free time tuning fuel injection setups on all different kinds of machinery. He’s messed around with everything from road race Porsches to the infamous “Turd” Fairmont that was equipped with a turbo LS Chevy engine. He recently posted some video of a hella bad ass LSR machine on the rollers during a tuning session. It’s must see gearhead TV.

The car sports a 930hp Ray Barton built, 498ci Hemi that’s topped with two throttle bodies that could swallow toddlers whole. The guys are getting their tuneup in order for Bonneville action this year and the 230mph range is where the car will hopefully end up.

Is that a REAL Charger Daytona or is it a clone?? I wouldn’t blame them for cloning as most real Daytonas are expensive hard to come by trailer queens and also for the improved aerodynamics over a regular Charger, but it would be even sweeter if it is real.

I think that car was in Mopar Action years ago. Can you imagine almost 500 cubes at 7000 rpm. That has to be pretty awesome

Most of the land speed cars run a narrow tire. This gives them less resistance for higher top speed. At a drag strip were excelleration is more imprtant than the top speed a much wider tire would be needed.

Im no specialist but don’t you think those tires are a little skinny for a car pushing 900+ horses ?
