Finnegan’s Death Metal Charger is arguably the scariest car that he and Newbern have in the fleet of fun. It is cool as hell, but it certainly isn’t easy to drive, comfortable, or reliable. That’s part of what makes it fun, but if it keeps wanting to crash then that is going to be no damn good. So Mike and Dave, with some help from KSR, got this thing whipped into much better shape and now it’s time to go thrash on it and see what these changes have really done.
Video Description:
Episode 192 of Mike Finnegan’s Garage is so damn good! The Death Metal 1968 Dodge Charger has been keeping it sketchy since the 1970s and now it’s mostly fixed! Thanks to Kevin Smith and some slick parts from QA1 and Wilwood, this car handles, stops and steers better than ever! By the end of this video we are doing burnouts and shaving 40ft off of our 60 mph to 0 mph stopping distance. So much win!
Monster torque ! oh yeah . Check out Lee Power Steering for your pump fittings , they make all their fittings in house for the highest quality you can get . P/N 40814 or P/N 40810 or P/N 40810-F/P should work just fine . Thats a lot of tire for a rack and pinion set up , the pump might need some tuning up . I’ve been using their stuff for years , very knowledgeable people .
