11 second street car?

Yes. The Mopar factory stuff is that good. Wait till you tear into one. You'll wonder why you ever messed with a chebbie. The stock 318-340-360 connecting rod is bigger than the chebbie LS6 454 rod.

First is the 318-340-360 then the LS6-LS7 big block rod. Though the big block rod is 6.135 and the Mopar rod 6.123 the difference is astounding. These are the same rods as in a 318 2bbl engine. Only difference in the 340 is they are bushed for floating pins.




Wow, thats petty amazing. I never knew they were that brutish in stock form. Do these good bottom ends apply for the magnums too? It seems one could save a good amount of money by using the factory stuff if staying under 500 horse. With a good solid bottom end, you could build a pretty snotty engine with a good set of heads and cam.
