I am not giving these examples to Mopar Bash, but rather to give you RACERS some ideas for your future racing powerplants. How can you possibly ignore this level of power production per dollar in this day and age?
Weighs just slightly more than a fully equipped chubby new SRT8 Challenger.

I agree that this is where the LS engines have it on the HEMI, the factory pistons and rods can take a beating, the HEMI, not so much, BUT, if u changed out the rods and pistons a HEMI could eclipse an LS with the same parts, remember HEMI'S love boost, more expensive yes but just as much if not more potential
I will admit I am very jealous that stock LS rods and pistons are as tough as they are and can see why people use them
