Quote: It will be cool to see the Brick with a Gen 3 in it. It would have been fun to put a Gen 3 into Tim's car but neither of us had the appetite to tackle that project. Hopefully Rick is able to make it happen. More power, less weight and a better weight distribution should drop the lap times a bit.
In all actuality the 3G hemi doesn't drop much weight over an aluminum headed LA motor. The 3G block itself is in the 190-195 lb range. Reported weights of 535-545 lb fully dressed and dry (including all accessories on the front)
That being said, it's a breeze to build a high power motor with one. Fitment sucks in an A body, though.
