Did anyone watch the AMC Motor build up on Horsepower TV? Not sure what motor it was, I think a 390, but got 481 HP at 5500rpm

Of course I only caught the last 2 minutes! I tried doing a search for the repeat, but no luck.....if anyone knows when it'll air again, please post! OR maybe someone digitized it like with the Trucks! episode on the FSJ (cherokee- I think).
Just out of curiosity, this isn't the same amc build that aired a couple years ago with the 401 was it?1970 Javelin SST, 390 auto, purple<br />1977 J-10, 401, auto, orange<br />1978 Cherokee Chief, 360, auto, blue<br />1989 Cherokee, 4.0L, auto, red -
I saw it. I thought I saw 401 on the side of the block at one point. I wasn't paying that much attention to the whole buildup though.1979 Cherokee Chief - SOLD.

We just got plugged into Dish TV and can see stuff like this now. [img]smile.gif[/img] I loved the sound of that 401 on the dyno between 4000-5000 rpm. GEEEZUZ, yes!

I'd say the same for my 327 at 4-5000 rpm, but the actual sound would be me sobbing and watching pistons and rods raining down around me.Originally posted by Flint:

The Edge... there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over.

Thats was awesome when they ran it thru the Dyno.
I could just see me with that motor for all of 8 sec. Then I would need a new rear end, driveline and Tranny. But Boy would I have a Perma-Grin for life.

If some one got a digitized copy, I would love to get a copy. I don't have cable, so I'm not able to see great shows like this...
