In this thrilling episode by MotorTrend Channel, the iconic Vanishing paint Challenger makes a triumphant return, ready to take on a new challenge in Tennessee. Originally snagged for a mere $300, this legendary car has been transformed into a formidable contender against a modern Challenger equipped with a 5.7 L Hemi engine. The team embarks on a mission to enhance the 360 motor, maintain the classic suspension setup, and upgrade to a T56 6-speed transmission, promising an exhilarating showdown at the track.
With meticulous precision, the crew dives into the transmission swap, dismantling the engine, exhaust, and accessories to make way for the new components. The tunnel undergoes significant modifications to accommodate the T56 transmission, ensuring a seamless fit for the powerhouse engine. Not stopping there, they opt for an oil pan upgrade to optimize oil control during intense braking moments, a crucial enhancement for peak performance on the track.
After hours of hard work and dedication, the team achieves a flawless installation of the new transmission and engine into the Challenger, a sight to behold for any car enthusiast. As the Challenger hits the track, it unleashes its full potential, showcasing impressive speed and agility, despite a minor hiccup with a missed gear shift. The roaring engine and expert craftsmanship culminate in a breathtaking display of power and precision, solidifying the Challenger's status as a true track beast.
