Thoughts on the Hurricane 6? 9.988 at 132.83

I have yet to drive one... Not in the market for anything new.... yet

With the current cost of the new rigs, I doubt I will ever be in the market. But looking at new applications might give me an idea if I could ever like the "around town" audio frequencies of the Hurricane motor.

Not that I expect to be in the market for even a swap anytime soon either.

I've had turbo vehicles since I was 19... Nothing like them!! :thumbsup:

I got into FWD turbo Mopars in the early 90's and culminated with an '89 GTC TII and an PT Cruiser GT but both gave me problems and I kind of soured on turbo cars. But before then I was all in and was planning a SB turbo car and have always felt a turbo was the best option for both power and economy, depending on the build and tune. What could be better than 3 liters NA and 7.4 liters at 22 psi?

I still think turbo's are the cats meow in regards to efficiency, but I have to admit the simplicity of the style of superchargers on the HC with it's built in intercooler really looks good.

Either way, I like the idea of a small motor with boost provided the boost doesn't come at too great a price. And the Hurricane is intriguing in that regard. Not going to change the direction on my '73, but makes me daydream a little in regards to my Dakota or something similar.
