At the time I did my heads, there was no cams on the market for the hemi at all, other than what DC had done for us stock. Even today, the cams COMP and KRC Perf. are selling are throwing codes, so its not worth it until someone gets one out that will function right. I do know of one truck up in the Baltimore, Md. area that is runing the 6.1 heads and cam, but we haven't seen the dyno results yet. He hasn't thrown any codes, but I'm willing to bet that they are so close in grind or size, it might be a 10 HP difference tops. Also, a stage 1 port and polish, anything else and I'd need something to operate the fuel management, or run lean as hell. A guy out of Va. Beach did like a stage III, had to go to a perfect power SMT6 to control the fuel. There really isn't alot of mods out there that work well with these engines, your basics, headers, exhaust, CAI, but as we all know they aren't to serious of mods. SRT will unleash some performance stuff for the 6.1 hemi, but we don't know if it'll work with the 5.7 due to the computer. These trucks are so tempermental its funny man, NOS is about the only kinda friendly mod that seems to work well and show good results.

[QUOTE=Rumble Bee Ram]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.
Not meaning to be a menace and try to prove you wrong, but w/chip, tune, pulley, and intake almost any L is putting down close to 400rwhp....and that is anywhere from 12.6-13flat sec in the quarter w/descent 60ft and depending on tires(little spin).....$100 pulley(used or new not from a aftermarket dealer), $100 chip(used), $45 homeade k&n ram air intake, and $150 for dyno tune....if you can find a hemi putting down 400rwhp or even turning 14flat quarter w/$400-450 let me know.
I have to agree though the new hemis are going to be bad, but we'll see what ford spits out next
it's all in fun and difference of opinion so don't take this the wrong way

Dude you are not running a 14.6 stock.... unless you have some sort of factory freak...
I have seen the "RUMBLEBEE" run and it turned a 15.5@89..... Which is not bad at all for a stock truck but dude you are not 14.6 stock..
You might be running 14.6 with a good head job, Tune, and CAI... amybe some othe rlittle mods here and there...

Heads, exhaust, and a modded factory air intake, and spring clamps..........hang on and I'll get the slip up. Its not that fast of a truck man, I promise. If I decide to get the superchips, it should shave about .3 tenths, so I'd be looking at around 14.3 then, but we will have to wait til its out to find out.

I don't have a scanner, this is the best I can do for ya, if you can't make it out, this is what it reads............keep in mind, I'm not bragging with these times, cause a 14.6 is slow.....LOL! If you look you can see I lost in this run, I was running around a 14.73- 14.75 consistent all day long. It was between me and a guy with another Rumble Bee for the shoot out, I broke out by 24 thousandths of a second and wound up finishing second place. I am showing up as car # 85, we had some of the bee guys there and quite a few from DTW as well. The ROCK, Rockingham, NC
