Yes the 6.4 does come in production cars. The SRT Charger,Challenger, and 300 all come with the 6.4 392 hemi!

If you can race one of the Factory Race Cars will anyone try to get the 68 Hemi or the L88 vettes approved for stock? If so what et's would they run.

Any chance you can post a picture of one in a 300 or street challenger and one in a drag pack?

I believe the '68 Hemi and '69 AMX are S/S-only, per the Classification Guide (unless they changed something).

I guess someone could build a '64 or '65 Hemi car for AAA and AA Stock though.

I'm just wondering what engine compartment looks the same from a showroom car to a race car? Just wondering cuz of course they will look a little different. But honestly the only different in the two mopars are manifold.

So the street version of the 392 has a .602 lift cam?

I like the new Stockers, the only problem I see is that NHRA should put 1.5 HP per C.I. factor and then let the car race to get power deminished.
This way, they don't just step to the top of the qualifing sheets. It's not fair for the guys who have worked for years on their combinations and with just a strike of a pen (NHRA's lack of policing, which we pay for through our membership), all their work on the combo's falls to the bottom of a qualifing sheet.
Another look is into the safety of a car going 153 mph racing a car (P/SA) going just over 100 mph, the closure rate is way too fast for tires that the stockers are limited to. Not saying that there should be a bigger tire for the faster cars, just a need to be looked at it logistically. Is it safe? A power adder car, from what I see at the races, have a tendency to spin the tires going down track and get loose. Orlando Street Car Nats is a perfect example, cars banging the walls all the time.

Congrads to Mr Fezel for the first 8 sec. Stocker!

If you are interested in winning, race a new mustang / dp or get out of the game. If you go out to the races just for fun, keep bringing your old stuff. You never know, you have a small shot. The message is very simple.
