Quote: Sorry to say this but, the only time a mopar will make that top ten list is if they put a 632 big block chevy plus turbos or big shots of nos. The old farm truck is kicking out 1500 HP and can't get on.
You think a BAE, or a P5, or W8, W9, or PSO, B1 -MC or B1-TS with twins......or a Pro Stock style HEMI, or a screw, or roots blown conventional HEMI, or a nitrous Predator, etc., etc......couldn't get on the list???
You think a MOPAR engine isn't capable of 3000+???
It's not all about the power, sure there is a lot of quick mopars at the track, but when you really look at the times, how quick would they be on the street? Look at Lutz, whats he run 6.70 -1/4 mile passes? Got his a$$ handed to him on last weeks show and that is a street driven car
You brought up the notion that the farm truck has 1500 and can't get in......not I. Your initial point included a specific horsepower number, therefore, I concluded......correctly, according to your post, that somehow, a MOPAR style race engine cannot generate the required steam to get on that list.
Is your point now that a race chassis with MOPAR skin cannot be made to function in the same environment that Chevy, or a Ford bodied race chassis can???
I'm well aware of the issues of getting a reasonably high powered vehicle to "work" in a street environment.....from personal experience, so is your 1st post where you disparaged MOPAR powerplants the issue, or your 2nd post about MOPAR sheetmetal the problem for Dodge and Plymouths???
