Rebuilding a Hemi in 5 Minutes
Ever Tried Taking Apart a Hemi? What about Putting it Back Together? These Guys Do it in Record Time! …Sorta
We’ve worked on plenty of cars, but we’ve never taken apart a Hemi, nor any engine. Not because we’re necessarily afraid of doing it, but because we’ve never needed or felt skilled enough to do so. We’ll let the pros handle that. And speaking of pros, this awesome video by Hagerty shows two pro guys doing what they do best, rebuilding a Chrysler Hemi FirePower engine.
Oh, and they even manage to do it in just five minutes! It’s a time-lapse video, of course. It was shot over 10 months and then compiled and sped up to fit in a five-minute scene. Behind the scenes, there were plenty of “oops” moments, but due to the speed of the video, we really can’t fully make out any of it. Broken bolts, stripped bolts and a few other shenanigans took place, but that’s to be expected. After all, no one is perfect!
Do you think you can beat their record?
