Mike Musto’s 1968 Dodge Charger is a driver, but is there more power and driveability locked inside its 440ci V8 powerplant? Mike drove the ride over 500 miles from San Francisco to the hallowed, horsepower-filled halls of Westech Performance where dyno expert, Steve Brulé, strapped it onto the rollers to find out.

  • I Love Mike's 68 and 69 Chargers as they both have the special unique characters. I hope he shows the 69 soon with all its upgrades.

  • Love Mike's Charger - ever since I saw it on Bull Run. Just so tastefully done - color, wheels and stance, the tail stripe, the '68 tail lamps, etc.,etc.

  • Glad to see you're taking care of her Mike. I watched the first season of Bullrun over and over as a kid and Team 1 was always my favorite. You guys drove this beast exactly how you should've.🔥

  • Having grown up when no new cars ever came with a carb (born in ‘93), I have always been amazed by old school tuners like Brule! I’ve been trying to learn all I can, and I have promised myself to keep a carb on my ‘71 Cutlass

  • Mr Brule is correct (no surprise) that car looks like a fresh build! The car is absolutely stunning! And a little tweaking to add 30 ft/lbs of torque? Time well spent. Thank you as always, love to see more on this, I've kinda missed it. ~ Chuck

  • Great to see some Musto-Charger content! My take away from it is that I shouldn't feel bad that I'm 12 years into my '70 Torino and it still isn't quite "there" yet. :P But it runs and drives, and that's what matters :D

  • Carb's still rule... Over 150yrs of tech into them. Vacuum sec rules also. The engine wants what the engine wants. Not what you want.... Many great carb builders out there however AED is the best.

  • With the standard loss of 20% through the drivetrain (sometimes a bit higher) the ENGINE would be making around 332 with all your accessories. I like tuning with both numbers, but that's just me 🔧

  • So, for that oil leak from the valve cover, did you replace the pcv valve with a breather?

    • Yessir - we had one on the car but Steve was kind enough to replace it with and NOS piece.
