So far, the 6.1 Hemi is an SRT engine for SRT vehicles. 300C SRT-8, Grand Cherokee SRT-8 and probably the Magnum SRT-8. 425 horses and 420 torque are the #s. Wow. Chrysler is making a Grand Cherokee SRT-8. Thats pretty cool. Do expect to see the 6.1 in the 2500/3500 HD trucks aswell. If not 2006 de...

I was at the local Auto show the other day and I was looking at that new Ford Mustang. It looks pretty good. They really went with the 60s style on the body and parts of the interior. When you bring back a musclecar with a big name you have to make it impressice and a sfar as im concerned Ford did j...

Dodge better step it up and come out with a better car than that. They are completely capable of it, so they should come through. You can't just remake a Charger, youv gotta remake it with style. The Charger has a big name and a bigger history to live up to, and this 2006 model aint gonna cut it the...

Come next spring, the new 6.1 will be out in the 2500 and 3500 trucks. The 1500 will have the higher output 5.7s, and the new 5.7 cams and ecm are supposed to show up. At present there are three companies working on performance heads right now, one of which is hughes who contacted members on anothe...

Toyota, Nissan Honda......these guys don't know how to make trucks. Thier cars are made for fuel efficiency and afordability, not for power and towing capabilities like the American trucks are. They can keep trying to make them better but its still just a Jap motor inside. Honda is apparently commin...

HEMI vs HURICANE
I have read that Ford is comming out with a new engine to battle the HEMI. Its called the Huricane. I can't find any specs on the engine yet, but it will probably push 310+ HP. Don't forget Dodge is comming out with a 6.1L HEMI in the near future so Ford will have to muster something up to compete w...

The Ford GT has to first give itself a run for its own money with a cost of 140+K. LOL. Ya that may scare away buyers, when you can get the same performance in the Viper for 10-15 thousand $ less. The GT doesn't scare me. Dodge will just give the Viper a boost for the 2005 year if the GT starts to ...

LOL, I agree with all In many ways. Stock, the Wedge was awesome, and in any apples to apples stock race comparison would smoke and model, of any make in the 60s. But when modded, the Hemi was just about untouchable. (Dodge/Plmouth never had a Europeaon car with their engine in it to compare to the...

I wish I did grow up in the musclecar era, but I didn't so theres not much I can do about that. I do do alot of reading and research though, so I do know my stuff. And yes alot of kids my age think the Civic is a hot car, if you guys can believe that. They think if you put rims and body stickers on ...

Its all matter of opinion wheather the HEMI was a great street machine or not. Same with the likes of 427 ZL1s and 427s. Some will say it was, some will say it wasn,t. So there is no real point in arguing that. The HEMI being the best engine of its time is also a matter of opinion. It doesn't really...

No the ZL1 was whiped out in one race by the Hemi. Its time on the drag strip was short and pointless, and the ZL1 was ultimately retired to road racing (CANAM crap) status. The 426 Hemi is a fine street mill but not a great one, the hemi was esigned as a nascar engine first thus it was designed to...

But the 427 is comparable to the hemi in several ways. I have had a hand in building a little of everything and the Ford 427 High Riser and an original BO29 Hemi are by far the 2 finest machines i have ever had the pleasure of working with. The Ford 427 is a good engine. Its second the only the hem...

Actaully little dude the Ford 427 is one of the reasons that the 426 Hemi was developed. While not a Hemi the Ford 427's canted valve design is a very effective design at high RPM. Thus in the early days when chrysler raced the 426 Max Wedges in NASCAR they fell to 427s more often than one might th...

Ford coppies Chrysler's HEMI in 65 !
I was reading earlier, on my musclecar info site (musclecarclub.com) that in 1965 Ford came out with an engine for the soul purpose of competing with the 426 HEMI. It was called the "427 Cammer". This is what the website had to say about this engine: "Without a doubt the most powerful...

The Nissan Titan is better than the F-150 but it would never outhaul a Ram. The Ram is the best truck on the road right now and in years to come. Nissan doesn't have an engine thats even close to the HEMI's capabilities. Come to think of it, nobody does. Even in about a year when Ford and Gm come u...
