Dolmetsch MoPar V8 roars at Le Mans
The morning after our party, we had a chance to practice on the Le Mans track, prior to the race, with our MoPar Shop built 1972 Charger. It's V8 is a 400 cubic inch B-Block built by Don Dulmage of Belleville, Ontario. Click below to see the video !
We came out of the "raccordement" chicane in 2nd, upshifted in third near the start/finish line and went full throttle until 4500 rpm in fourth into the right hander at the end of the main straightaway. You could hear it roar for miles around !
I hung with Donnie when he was building Dodges in the '70s. They were good then, they still are, your car sounds great, best of luck.
