Gen III Hemi manifold - 05/24/12 08:47 PM

There has been some rumors about a more cost effective single plane "Drag Pak" type of manifold for some time. We here it is: The Muscle Motors and Kent Ritter Racing Gen III Hemi manifold. We will have 3 versions. A standard 4150 top, 4500 top and we will also offer the manifold cut down 1 1/2". These are the first manifold we made and are all going on existing combinations in the next few weeks. I will post the price in the new product section so this thread can stay in the Race Tech column.

The first run of available manifolds we be ready July 1st and will be available thru Kent Ritter Racing or here @ Muscle Motors. We will have these manifolds @ Carlisle, Mopar Nats and The Monster Mopar Weekend in Indy this fall. Any questions can be directed to my E-mail: Mike@musclemotorsracing.com

4500 top, The standard drag pak manifold does not have enough meat at the top to support a 4500 pattern.

The opening is a standard 6.1 size. If you have a 5.7 head you will have to open up the port opening to match or just have them CNC ported.

How street friendly would the cut down version be on an Eagle 5.7 ?

I'll know in a few weeks. The first short version goes on the give away engine that we are doing for Carlisle this year! If you come to the show you will be able to hear the engine run. We always have the engine we are givng away on a run stand and run the engine
"on the hour" during the day on Friday and Saturday.

Cam profile obviously has a major affect on "drivablity". Also I have learned that people have radically different opinions about what is "drivable" but I don't see it being an issue with the proper cam.

I love to see that you guys are willing to take the initiative to do something like this. I believe the 3G Hemi is the next thing coming. Now we just need some quality cranks at a good price.

How did it end up performing on the test engine?

So are you saying the 4500 casting has a larger dimension (shown in red) on the outside then your 4150?

Or the Mopar Drag Pak intake?

The intake casting can accomodate either 4150 or4500 carb. And,yes the intake is physically larger than the Drag Pack intake in that area. The DP intake doesn't have the material to be opened up for a 4500.

I really hope it cost way less than the dp
