It should look nearly identical other than the machine work.
It's cast at the same foundry (Dalton) and from the $ame Chry$ler tooling as in 2008.

Congrats on the block Randy.
I remember talking about it back when they first came out through MP/World.

If you sonic it, I'd love to see the numbers posted, and it might help a few folks decide they want one.

The two I checked were super thick esp considering they were both 4.500 and up, but I never
said anything about that activity, as some people here can be ridiculous.


Its a really clean looking casting. They definitely used some nice tooling when they cast it. The decks look like nearly an inch thick. Machining looks good too, but we have not checked any of it yet. If the money allows, this will become a 528 blown Hemi with an 8-71 on it. I wanted one before they disappear again or the price goes up again.....I would love a wedge version as well, but I have to save what I have for the chassis updates. The guy who welded the cage, is not a chassis guy and it all got cut out. Putting a Moly 8.50 certed cage in it right now.
