    Hemi opinions

    2014, no doubt now. Police vehicles are beat to ****. They idle all the time, they flog them repeatedly daily. Remember, the police don't have a nickel in them, and treat them as such.

    Hemi opinions

    Not knowing what they came out of i'd lean towards the 2014. It has more miles per year.

    Who's put a hellcat in an A-body ??

    I'd start with an Alterkation complete with Gen 3 mounts.

    22” radiator, do they keep up

    I'd rather have the additional radiator even if it's partially shrouded by the radiator support. I know you said trimming isn't an option but done right you can't tell it's been opened.

    Gas tank?

    How does that affect weight bias on the scales? ALso, how does your car hook up with the tank in this location?

    Gas tank?

    Hot rod city garage makes welded aluminum tanks that mount in the factory location and hook up to the factory fill. THey ever use a mopar fuel gauge.

    '05 Hemi ?'s

    YOu are crazy to run any engine you care about, especially one backed by a manual transmission without a rev limiter. That eliminates the whole issue. As far as revving it until every last amount of power is gone, bad idea, that means you went past peak power and you are on the significant...

    '05 Hemi ?'s

    Why will a 4 speed see more RPM's than an automatic? According to hypertec, "the safe RPM limit" for your engine is "6200RPM but it stops making power far below that in a stock hemi"

    Swap?

    TTI probably makes headers for that application. I use their headers for Schumacher mounts and a 440RB

    Swap?

    CHeck out Schumacher to see if they make conversion mounts.

    Swap?

    You do not need an aftermarket front end setup, it's just easier and saves a lot of time. You sell your stock stuff. Buffers the cost a bit... Don't forget to add all of the restoration costs, resto parts, upgrade parts and Schumacher swap parts to your stock system. Heim joints work great on...

    Swap?

    But make life really easy in addition to killing many birds with one stone. When I built my first A body I used the factory K-member to put the 440 in place of the 340. I pulled all the front suspension, sandblasted prepped and painted every part. In retrospect, this was a waste, 3 fold...

    Swap?

    I haven't done it but RMS makes a front suspension with the mounts you need and I do use his front suspension. I'd give him a call, if he's making those I'd bet he's very knowledgeable about that swap.

    tach misreading - showing wrong rpm's

    Make sure your tach and ignition are set to V8. I have a 4 cylinder dirt track car and went though this with mine.

    500hp 5.7? Whats it take?

    Victor heads and a howards 711133-08 cam. Top it with a 950HP. Exhausted through TTI's. That would be my shot at it if it were mine. I'd talk to IQ52 about the heads though

    hellcats can run 10.48

    With exception to tires, that's the story. Car appear stock. They say they are stock. That don't mean much. If you run the numbers through any calculator you'll come out with high 10's. 3800 pounds. 662 flywheel hp. From what I've read about them they require some small tweaks to get low...

    hellcats can run 10.48

    9.59. 9 second Ford Mustang GT500 Vs AC Cobra - YouTube I wish I had taken videos at my track this year of the GT500's. 9's and 10's. The one guy doesn't have a license, he goes 10's on the brakes.

    hellcats can run 10.48

    This is quite a bit exaggerated and some of it is simply untrue. A somewhat radical engine. I guess..depends on many factors and is subjective. Does not require a lightened body. Does not need to be stripped of creature comforts but the new cars typically have more. NHRA does not...

    hellcats can run 10.48

    They can and do. They go 9's for that matter. There's a few at our local track. The one guy goes 10's on the brakes.

    hellcats can run 10.48

    And GT500's go 9's on tires and pump gas. And they don't have so much chassis flex that they crank sunroofs either.

    Very nice. I love modern tech in the old cars.
