Quote: Guess my question is whats the point? There are already plenty of 5" and 5.3" bore space stuff out there on the market. They are not Ford or Chevy so why try and make something and call it Mopar? Those 5 and 5.3BS engines are purpose built race pieces period. If someone wants to step up to that level there are options out there now.
Why would someone want to build another one of these, just to call it a Mopar? It costs a ton o money in head research and configuration and then you have to sell them. Indy has a 4.84 bore center block for the 600-13 head, but that head doesn't get it done like a predator would. Although, who could blame them for not spending the money to do it? Besides, people would say it's not a Mopar anyway.......buy a "purpose built race motor" if you want more power, period.
