I have used Matt for years and can say he is a real parts guy

I called Dave Weber's Modern Muscle shop today and I was told that the Super Charged head is unique, built for the Super Charger. However, they also confirmed something I wondered about. The head on the 6.4 Ram truck engine is the same head as the SC head and is drilled for an NA intake. That's the one to use if you want the non-SC intake bolt pattern. They mentioned that the main advantage of the SC or Ram head was its stronger material for boosted applications.

you can buy hellcat engine everything

$4250 can get you a hellcat shortblock. I want to buy one just to have one

THe blocks are listed for sale, but are not in stock. I called already lol

Any idea why the pn changed for the 2016 models.
Looking to finally pull the trigger and noticed they have changed

+1
Hellcat head is unique; it's 356-T6 aluminum just like the supercharger rotor case vs. the 319 alloy the other heads use. The 6.4 truck head is also 356-T6.
Another thing that hasn't been mentioned is that the passenger side head will have dowel holes machined in them to locate the 'charger. This would obviously only apply to those who were looking to mount a supercharger. Not sure if the truck heads would have these machined holes or not. From what I can recall, I have seen sets of heads with the SC bolt pattern without the dowel holes.

If you use the truck heads they use the standard G3 Hemi intake pattern. The Hellcat heads have a unique pattern exclusive to the superchargers. Long story short,use the truck heads.

I find find it hard to believe its the same head casting and material with different bolt pattern. It's listed $300 cheaper than a hellcat head.

last time I check the truck and hellcat head were different materials.

I'm betting they don't have hollow stem valves either.

Any insight to the pn change for 15-16 hellcat heads?

Just for any interest. The heads have changed to pn 68225718ab and 19ab. They are the new pns for the 16 and 17 heads. They want up in price but the core charge is less so they are cheaper than the 15 heads. Dealer said they had no idea what the changes are.
They are on the way.

Anyone have a part number for the "big gas" truck head? Aka the less expensive hellcat head

CYLINDER HEAD - 2015 RAM 2500 (68280507AA) left

CYLINDER HEAD - 2015 RAM 2500 (68280506AA) right

Hope this helps!

Quick Google search shows the lowest price is less than $960 with the core charge added in.
