We have to realize there are two camps here, n/a on one side and blowers, turbos and nitrous on the other. I respect what this lady has done to run in the nines( I would have one if I could afford it) but... I'm more impressed with that guys Scat Pac, adding tires and running 11.85( which my SRT should run too). It's more of a testament seeing what an engine will do by itself ( like Bartons ). Since I'm not living in the old days I will be putting a turbo,nitrous on my Gen lll for the 73 Cuda, I want to run fast and cheap too! Heck there was this guy with Ed Millers old car that had a junkyard full of 440s he'd stick one in the car with a cam,carb and intake with a 500 hp nitrous kit and run in the mid fives, for awhile, then stick anouther in, do the same, does that impress you, funny to me. Just proves you can take average stuff and make it fly with power adders.

As for the "Chevy guys can't get their cars as fast.." comment....Uhm, the CTS-V has been in the 9's for a long time and a few in the 8's. We won't even talk about the other LS platform cars either.

The Hellcat is a great car but some of you act like there is no car faster out there! geez.

Same odd sounding trans during passes - and look at the black smoke during shifts, I think that's the torque management (pulls timing right as the trans shifts to keep it alive). Removing that in a 392 car is worth a few tenths alone...

Don't even compare the LS crap that's had its balls nuzzled by the aftermarket for 15 yrs. to a package that hasn't even been out for a year. Really? There is a Challenger out there in 6's let's not forget.

Talk to the engine builders...

Look at the current state of 'Mopar Peformance'...

Look at the Summit, and Jeg's catalogs...


The juggernaut that is Ford and GM is KILLING 'Chrysler'...

No revelation there...


There's late model 8-second cars in these parts with license plates on the back...

Ain't none of 'em 'FCA'...


Those of us that have been around lived through '71 to '08...

All those years languishing...

While Ford and the General kept on rolling...

There's a local club here...

DAMM...

They lean towards late-model Mopars...


Saw 'em out on Woodward last summer...

They were getting some goodly amount of cars out there...

Which is probably a good thing...


They walked over, invited me to come and hang...

With the 'old sh!t'...


(They even had some 'moredoors'...)

Why? Becasue either: 1-its true or 2-it makes the "Mopar or no car" boys butt hurt?

The statement that "slow Chevy guys...." just is flat out Wrong.

The Hemi platform has been out since 2003. Is that enoough time to compare it to the LS platform that came out in 96? the fact is, there is much more aftermarket for Chevy. Your denial does not alter reality.

So why did engine masters pull the 3rd gen hemi out of competition. They made there own class to compete in after it won two years in a row. Don't do that for ls stuff. Rob Goss went 202 mph with a factory iron block in his challenger, find me a factory ls block doing that.

Years ago people thought a boneyard LS wouldn't live with a turbo - now they say the same about a 5.7L hemi....(hemis make more power than LS's size for size)

I may be Mopar or no car, but I also have enough brains to see something that IS fast no matter the brand and dont hesitate to acknowledge REALITY. My point is even though Chrysler/Fiat is late to the party, they have MORE than caught up and without the nut nuzzlers like Lingenfelter, Holley, Dart, RHS, Jegs, Summit,MAST, Steilow, MSD, Edelbrock etc. etc. etc. propping up their oem substandard products. The Camaro and the Mustang both would be screwed without the HUGE aftermarket support they always automatically receive even before they hit the dealerships. Its funny how the more things change, the more they stay the same. Mopar is non-existent for products for whatever reason ever since the mafia took over.
