I sent a follow-up email to Street & Performance to see if they would want to share any information with us. No response yet. Hopefully there really is some good news! Maybe an updated PCM is coming from someone soon so they are using an S&P project for a publicity stunt to grab some attention befor...

Here are the details that I was provided with: Bellhousing is casting # 1799592-1. BLOCK bears 1739429-4 and a date? of 2-10-58. CRANK's stock sizes were 2.490 mains, 2.240 rods, now 10-10 undersize. CAM has 0.255" lift at the cam lobe, both I and E. FLYWHEEL is quite heavy, maybe 50 lbs, about 14.8...

1957 DeSoto Sportsman with 5.7L Hemi
http://www.thehemi.com/registry.php?id=0045

You might want to drop Wayne an email with some
questions. He put a 5.7 Hemi into his 1957 DeSoto.

Although I would still like to see some answers put
online here for anyone else who is thinking about it.

Whatcha going to be using the Hemi Coronet for?
Racing? Weekend warrior? Shows? All of them?

You will need to shoot me pictures and details when
the motor is installed for the Reader's Rides section.

If you find one, let me know, so I can add it to my clubs listing.

Anyone know of a Mopar club that I have not listed? Tell me!

Do not be afraid to sign-up on TheHemi.com Forums! We have room for all Hemi owners, cars or trucks. :) 300C does 0-60 in 5.3 and 1/4 mi in 13.9 (from C&D). This is from a 4000+ lb vehicle running on 2.82 gears! When the next version release of phpBB comes out, it should support sub-groups. So I can...

THE DELAY IS DUE TO A FOUNDRY CLOSING DOWN THUS REQUIRING MOPAR PERFORMANCE PARTS TO MOVE THE TOOLI...

Paxton tells me they are 1-2 months out still (of course). So the website selling them must be collecting pre-orders or just trying to get some free website traffic. If the "upto 45% increase" claim ends up being the truth, that means the 5.7 HEMI would get bumped upto 500-hp! (That is crank horsepo...

Plenty of rumors and speculation about the KB kit. KB says they are not done tuning the PCM, but the true conspirators believe that DC is stopping them for now so we do not have $30K Hemi Rams out to kill the $45K Viper Rams. Paxton has not returned my email about a website which claims to have a Pa...

Here is some interesting information... http://thesuperchargerconnection.com/ They are selling a Paxton supercharger kit for the HEMI. NOVI 1200 -- 1201220 (Satin) and 1201220-P (Polished). The odd thing is that Paxton does not list these part #s. But the part #s are very close to the latest Dodge u...

Why is the Ram 345/375 and Durango 335/370? Same engine, but the Durango has a more restrictive exhaust system to keep the interior cabin noise down. How is the 300/Magnum 340/390 any different? Several reasons, namely dealing with packaging of the engine for the certain market. Noise dampening eng...

X = car line, Charger
P = price class, Premium

Or so my documentation states for 1968s.
I guess it is probably the same for 1967s.

Pvt_Hemi, Whipple tells me they currently do not have any plans to develop a supercharger kit for the new 5.7L Hemi. The "Chrysler Hemi Kits" that I think you might have found are for the big crate motors. Check out their boat forsale: http://www.whipplesuperchargers.com/content.asp?pageID=72 Do not...

That is a pretty interesting theory, I could see that.
It would be hard to sell a $45K 500-hp Ram if there
is a $3K add-on for a $25K Ram to also get 500-hp.

1) It should not be too hard of a task to undertake. 2) We are still waiting for a SC to actually be sold. I believe the hold up is cracking the PCM so that it can be updated to accomodate the new air charge. I dropped another message to KB to see what they have to say about their progress. Not that...

TheHemi.com officially endorses this banner ad.
In case anyone wants to use it to link to the site!

Rumors are floating around that Dodge might be getting ready to release a performance package for the Hemi to include an updated PCM and maybe fuel injectors. Price was somewhere around $1100. No real hp #s provided. Not sure of this is vaporware or really something coming. But that would be cool to...

What kind of differences are we going to see?
I assume the car version has speed density, too.
Basically the same motor with a different flash?

Check out this thread for some people's opinions:

Get the APS Precision stall converter. 25-30 rwhp!

So Chrysler did produce a few 301 Hemis in 1951? Was it only in 1951? Is this documented anywhere? The 354 is a 331 with a larger bore. What is a 301? Even smaller bore than the 331? Any more details? I would love to add it to my Hemi database if I can confirm some info. Serial pad values would be n...

Sounds like it really is a S22 engine. 291 DeSoto FireDome Hemi.
I think the owner is willing to sell the engine for $400 if anyone has
an interest in a 291 DeSoto. Drop me a line if you have an interest.

I'm having a hard time thinking about why you
would not want to drop in a blown Hemi.
