Quote: Much as I like the Gen 3, don't forget the discontinued 59 degree W9 also flowed 300 out of the box and had potential above and beyond that.
But comparing an aftermarket race head to a dirt cheap OE production head ain't exactly fair
As far as the block taking it goes, there is a reason MP built the 392 at std bore, and it was not out of laziness. Don't bore it. It will surprise you.
They need to start racing these things in roundy round cars then I think people would start buying. Matt
Penske has done their research on them years ago and asked permission from NASCAR to use it and they said No. gotta love that [/quote
Never mind the big leagues go with grass root get enough demand and .......
So if the new srt 8 is using the 5.7 Me thinks the 6.1 is on the chopping block. Hey ZIPPY PLEASEEEEEE ask them to turn the 6.1 into a siameses bore block before they they scrap it. Matt
Now I read that the 2011 srt 8 challenger is using the 6.1 block and not the 5.7 as I previously stated. With a 4.09 bore I don't think the 5.7 block could handle it. It is also coming with roller rockets. I like to see the part# and pricing on them. Matt
I was referring the the 6.1 block. It's good to know that the 6.4 is going to be used in all srt8. That means that the bigger crankshaft will be for sale. Matt
