dont know how much tuning can be done to a stock engine..but tuninig can go a long way if you know what your doin.

You'd be wrong.     The "Hemi" is not as durable, nor even remotely close to "THE Hemi's".    The ones nowadays have shoddy oil pans, this problem is also present in their "2/3/4/5.7 Garbage lineup".    I've driven the SRT8 from Livonia, MI to Naples, FL (umm, it was hopped up) when I worked for Roush.    I got to take it on a track down there and it's handling is horrid (a lot worse than a Mustang, or Camaro).    The Camaro handles the best of the three and I'm usually a Ford guy.  

As for the Engines, ask CAP he works on and I dealt with them.   The Dodge customers deserve better and it's a damn shame.

bolded........fully agree. dodge used to be a name to be feared on the race tracks, moreso i think than ford or chevy. dodge, while they've got some cool looking cars, has really really let their customers down.

 i got a question for you........i've not been able to find a lot of techy stuff on the new 5 liter. from pictures i see, it looks to me to be a "Y" block, rather than a "V"?
 if so, this i think would be a partial explanation as to how that engine can take nearly 13psi of boost without major modifications. i've not been able to find anything concerning the heads either.
 there's a local racer here that has trouble not lifting the heads off of the OHV 5 liters when he dumps massive boost on them, but he runs turbos though, rather than superchargers.

i knows what i'ma doing. 

[MaSonZ]

i knows what i'ma doing. 

have fun! 

[CAP1]

i think i should also add.......many of my "disparaging" remarks about the chevys and dodges, are in a bit of humor.
 i love ALL of these muscle/pony cars. i just have always loved fords, and they're almost always just a little out front for me.

Getting close to finishing a 1967 fastback with a 428 (lemans heads on a high nickel c7mea casting block) topped with a 427 medium riser intake in front of a top loader 4 speed.

Replaced the roof, all floors, cowl, both rear quarters, rear taillight fascia...etc.

Found that ford soldered a lot of it together but I brazed instead as well as used some connectors on the underside.

Hemi?

Here's a double overhead cam hemi.

Year?....1920.....or earlier and some had 4 valves per cylinder.



Interestingly, the company who came up with this engine was bought out by Hispano-Suiza.
