Starting Line: Moving Forward with Lessons Learned in 2020

Starting Line: Moving Forward with Lessons Learned in 2020 John McGann © Hot Rod Network Staff 001-john-mcgann-editorial-digital-publishing It s early January as I write this, and the pages of the calendar have finally flipped on 2020. Good riddance, in my opinion. I d imagine a lot of folks reading this feel similarly. 2020 was an unprecedented year for all of us personally, as well as professionally for your humble author and my colleagues at MotorTrend Group. Though it s very tempting to leave 2020 in the rearview mirror where it belongs, I believe there are things to learn amid the difficult times. As a staff, we have had to learn to make a lot of online content on very few resources. Cost-saving measures, as well as company restrictions on travel, meant we turned to our archives or hyperfocused on local assets for fodder to write about. That s not necessarily a bad thing, either. For one, we have a long history of online articles, going back to the mid

How to Build a TH200-4R for Drag Racing

How to Build a TH200-4R for Drag Racing Steve Magnante © Hot Rod Network Staff 116-0804-CARR-01 Art Carr loves the 700-R4 overdrive automatic transmission as much as the next guy. The problem is, these transmissions blow up when they re subjected to real power. That s why Carr is a huge supporter of the TH200-4R overdrive automatic. Blessed by GM s Hydramatic Division with superior guts, it only takes a few well-chosen tweaks to make a TH200-4R live behind as much as 1,000 horsepower. Got a 6-71 supercharged 468 rat motor in your daily driver like Robbie Whitlock s 66 Chevelle? Carr can build you a TH200-4R that ll take the gaff.

This 2011 Dodge Charger is Death Proof

This 2011 Dodge Charger is Death Proof John Machaqueiro © Hot Rod Network Staff 001-2011-dodge-charger-deathproof-front-right The exuberance of youth and automobiles don t always go together well. Cars are at times the catalyst for unwanted problems. For Alex Liebergall a 2010 Camaro was just that, and it wasn t even a V-8. His sporty GM ride was begrudgingly sent to a new home and substituted with a Dodge Ram pickup. That was his first flirtation with a Mopar, but the draw of a sportier ride lingered. That lead to the purchase of a 2011 Dodge Charger R/T. I wanted a Challenger originally, he explains. At the time I was taking care of my parents and grandparents, so I needed something with four doors. I liked the mix of the Charger with some of its retro design elements like the taillights, and the idea of a big car with a big motor in it.

Rare Flathead Treasure Trove and a Caddy-Powered 32 Stashed in Arkansas

Rare Flathead Treasure Trove and a Caddy-Powered ’32 Stashed in Arkansas Connell R. Miller © Hot Rod Network Staff 001-013-whitehead-1932-ford-three-window-sb-1940-fords-manifolds-garage During a visit several years ago to Frank Pratt, an ex-West Coast dedicated car guy living in the Ozark Mountain community of Bella Vista, Arkansas, I asked about a rumor I d heard about a 32 Ford three-window that was built as a hot rod in the early 1950s and was still in the owner s possession. Adding to that mystery, the garage in which the car was parked supposedly contained a large collection of Ford flathead parts. He laughed, grabbed his cell phone, and 20 minutes later we pulled up in front of a large home on a cul-de-sac that overlooked Loch Lomond, the largest of the town s lakes.

Which Manual Transmission Is Best for Your Swap Project?

Which Manual Transmission Is Best for Your Swap Project? Steven Rupp © Hot Rod Network Staff 019-which-trans-tremec-T5-TKO-Magnum-XL-TKX-buyers-guide-Bowler-LS-Swap Not all manual transmissions are created equally, so you need to know some info before choosing one for your ride. Automatic transmissions have come a long way from the non-overdrive, slow-shifting slushboxes of the past, and while we can appreciate how good they are, these days many of us still prefer a manual transmission. Why? Why do we desperately cling to what some call antiquated? For the same reason Porsche dropped manual transmissions and then brought them back for many of their higher-performance models, because manual transmissions are more fun. Yep, it s true. Automatics are great for the daily driver, or even a cruiser, but for high-performance driving, off track or on, nothing beats the feeling of rowing gears and trying to nail that perfect heel-toe downshift. With a manual transmis
