Two-door Dodge Challenger to return?
http://money.cnn.com/2005/06/13/Autos/f ... hallenger/

The resurrected Challenger muscle car will come back in 2009 industry paper says.

This makes for some pretty interesting reading.

The original request mentioned maybe a 366 ci Hemi.
Sounds like the 366 ci motor might have come from a
383 destroked and topped with Hemi heads. Not sure
how many people actually ran these small Hemis, but
they sure do sound interesting!

Someone asked me for info (engine specs) on a destroke 426 Hemi that was available. This was news to me, so I decided to do some research to see what I could dig up. So far... I'm told that 396 and 400 ci versions of the 426 Hemi were run in Pro Stock from 1972 and up. The 396 with a 3.48" stro...

Have you run your HEMI in the quarter mile yet?
Headers, converter, gears and now a turbo. This

Patriot Performance http://www.patriot-performance.com/ Just in case anyone is interested, here's their website. The Stage I heads are available.

Here is a little more information. Some actual specs.
Still wish that I could see some pics of the chambers!
210 ft-lb @ 1750 rpm is pretty good for a 3.7L engine.

If you want to compare the performance line then it would be the Lightning. Which turns 12's stock. SVT Lightning? 12s? They turn 13.7 to 13.9 in stock trim. Go check out some Lightning owner forums to check it out. How much them Hemi's cost? $40k? Is that guess in Canadian? They start at $24,300 f...

To show that you can stick a Hemi in just about anything.

Anyone know anything about this? SOHC Hemi?
Unfortunately it's the first time that I heard of it.

Someone has emailed me this question:

Can you advise me as to what year roller lifters were first used in a Hemi and also what year were roller lifters first designed and utilized.

Not my can of worms. Can anyone help?
