I agree with rumblebee as far as the L thing goes. Once the new engine is and I can really back it up Ill have one of those sticker son my truck. But the 6.1L HEMI is badass my girl wants a charger bad and I like the srt's they are awesome looking so I may just have a HEMI sittin outside my apartment. Yeah I know guys I may be crossing over to the dark side but Ill still have my truck it isnt going anywhere I have spent WAAAAY to much money on it to get rid of it.

No hemi is running even with a Lightining....

The best I have seen run was a 15.1 and that was with CAI, Superchips Tune, and without the 20's

The average I have seen at 3 different tracks is around a 15.5-15.9

I bet I can put you on some HEMIs, all motor turning 13s, there is alot of "L's" out there still in the 13s, some in the 11's and 12's as well, but no where near stock stuff on those. I am running a full second better than what you quoted them to run with my RC SB truck here in NC, on all motor.


And yes, there is a HEMI station wagon pulling 12.9s bone stock, the SRT 8 Magnum, guy has video coverage and slips on the SRT forum. You guys had better watch out for the 6.1 HEMI, it is VERY under rated at 425 HP stock, more like 450-475 with the results it putting down at the track. The 5.7 HEMI is a standard engine for most V-8 applications, but the srt 8 HEMI is one you had better beware,and John Hennessey already has 3 cars sitting down in Texas he is playing with, god only knows what he'll get out of them, if there is anything that can be done, he can do it, thats proven, no mattter how his background is. Now keep in mind when I tell you this.............most of the GM crowd over here knows me, and they know that I'm not biased on all dodge stuff or one of the HEMI commerical followers, I'm just trying to get you to realize a point you might want to look into before putting that sticker on your ride, cause you might get embarrassed at the next light you pull up to........but hey, its your ride, so go ahead............

It is pretty much stock man, a little head work(more polish than port work), exhaust, and a modded factory air intake system. No programmer, nothing else at all. You aren't that far from NC, next time we do the Rock, you should come down. I have slips as well as a bunch of witnesses from the Rock, I don't think a 9.4 is all that good myself, or a 14.6 either really, but thats what it turns.

What times are you running?

why would you go thru all the work to take your heads off to polish them and not port them or put a cam in the truck? kinda weird dont you think. mine run 9.51 with a sorry 60 ft time. 2.35 i believe it was.
