I've been toying around with the idea of purchasing a used 2005 and up Dodge magnnum. Since the SRT-8's are going to be out of my price range, I was thinking of getting the 5.7 version. What would it take, given the limits below, to get it to run 12.20 or under in the quarter? I wuld really like an 11 sec magnum.
limitations:
-daily driver(start and run every day, summer, winter, creature comforts)
-no weight reduction (removing seats, AC compressor, etc)
-NO NOZZZZ....
-superchargers and turbos ok
-must meet NJ emissions limits
-suspension mods ok, but must not detract from cornering and braking
-include drivetrain upgrades if necessary.
can it be done? and at what cost?
- 67 coronet 4dr, 383/727/GVOD, blown, EFI, daily driver
- 230/238, 114°LSA cam, 1.6 rollers, 9:1 comp, 8 psi boost
- NEW BEST ET - 12.40@110mph...

So, from that article, a stroked 5.7 should do the trick? how do those motors swap out in a magnum? out the bottom? What needs to get done to the ecu?

what I mean is UNLESS you are going to completely tear down the engine and do extensive work a S/C unit is the way to go. Either way it isn't going to be cheap. I forget the company but they sell bolt on S/C kits that add 100+hp for around $3800 and you get everything you need including the tuner.

I guess I should also ask how much hp is necessary to run 12.20 and under? and will a "100 hp" supercharger do the job?

That and a converter might. If you have a Mopar Action magazine you will see adds for the converter. They claim w/ the convert alone you will drop a full half second off the et. So you take a 13.70 car to 13.20 and then add 100+ hp and you should be in the low 12 second range. And that's w/ 3.06 gears or are the 3.07?
