Rumors say 2005 300C SRT-8 with 6.1L Hemi.
6.1L Hemi making 425-hp 420-tq through the 5A.
4-piston Brembos, 20" rims and so on. Let's see!

I just included the DCX press release with all the photos.
The 425-hp 420-tq 6.1L Hemi is officially out of the bag!

Happy Birthday to me!

(If only I could afford one tho!)

They have the estimated 1/4 mile in the high 13's. They already run that. I think low 13's would be a better guess.

This will definitly send the new GTO packing.

It will....though, the specs are off but purposelly like the 300C. This engine is a torque monster but I had to laugh at the 420 rating.
