An old style Hemi will weigh 200 - 300 lb more than a G3. Tie 300 lb to the front end of your car and take it for a spin, I'm betting it won't drive too well. Plus, if you already have the 6.4 sitting in your shop.........

Your right about weight, I totally agree.
There are a lot of benefits of newer motors but I still would like to see that 426 motor sitting in my car.
Before I buy what it takes to install the 6.4 thought I would think about it.
