Default 1972 Dodge Demon GSS

1972 Dodge Demon GSS

"Mr. Norm, ever the performance promoter, rightly figured the low-compression 340 was ripe for forced induction. Just pack more air into the manifold and feed in extra fuel, and you'd be good for one last go-round. So this juvenile delinquent was further corrupted by a centrifugal supercharger, supplied by Joe Granatelli and installed by hot-shoe Gary Dyer. With a beltdriven Paxton puffer, plus a modified fuel pump and pressure regulator, the output ballooned to a somewhat respectable 360 horses. Compared with its fellow gangstas, that number might seem a bit like bringing a knife to a gunfight. But there was a key formula in its favor: the power-to-weight equation. Like the L79-powered Chevy II, the Demon was a cookie tin stuffed with trouble. Stomp the go-pedal, and you could catch those burly big-blocks napping at the line."

Thought you would all appreciate this car. I never saw one before.
