I understand Chip, I was just looking at the numbers.
Jim's Charger for example:
Hemi / Wedge
HIS 3885# Mine 3640# = 245#
COMP 11.7 - 13.9 = 2.2p
Cams Pretty darn close.
Heads 449 - 366 = 83CFM
CID 606 - 512 = 94CI
Gears 4.88 - 4.10
suspension Pretty much the same.
Tires ??? - 10.5"
ET 9.60 - 9.55


2 Points of Compression and a Diet and his hemi is in the 8's ?????
or take away 94Cubes and 83 CFM and he could be in the 9.XX's ??????

I'm confused now... What was your setup?
