How Much Power Does My Dodge Charger Make After 57 years? In this episode Jonny Smith takes his patinated 1968 Charger big block 383 (6.3 litre) 4 speed manual for a dyno tune session at @ProjectHeaven https://project-heaven.com/. The car was personally imported in 2008 and restored the following year, but retaining its patina. Thanks for stopping by The Late Brake Show.
