Here's my answer They are in the buisness aren't they & own the rights & pick the vendors to make what they own ?
I already have a career this is just a hobby that cost me 100.000 grand in the last 3 yrs.
And can i ask what kind of motor are you running ? Is it a race car or cruiser with a stock block ? If you were in OUR shoes and looking to go fast i believe you might feel differently.
Ps while the new Gen hemi is cool to try and compete with 23* or 20* on power adders i think would be difficult and i dont wanna be a ginny pig to see how mucb spray it can take.




Just because Mopar made something at one time doesn't mean they have to continue making it. Maybe the demand is just not there anymore to justify it.

As for what I have, I have a street/strip car with a Gen 3 Hemi. Been there and done that with a full blown race car......No more for me. Seems to me you need to take a good look at your program and if the parts aren't available, move on to what is.




So I should move on from small block mopars? No more race sbms, so what should I put in? Can't go gen 3 hemi no race blocks either. So I guess I should go small block chevy? Or maybe ford? What do you think Steff?




how much power do you intend to make? seems like the factory Gen3blocks can handle quite alot of power boosted.




I am at the 1000 hp level now so if I build another motor I would want to make more. I would want to do a factory block and be told I think it will hold up. I run nitrous so that is a little harder on parts then boost.




yep you are up there where even these strong Gen3 stockblocks might have a limited lifetime,i would use boost instead of nitrous unless you are stuck with the nitrous by some rules.
cant you find one of those Aluminum blocks?i seem to remember mopar makeing a few different styles of aluminum Gen3 blocks some time ago
