I don't think there will be a new car with the conventional 'drive by wire' throttle system. That was one of the problems in developing the new cars for racing. Just ask Toyota. NHRA wants a return spring of some kind. At least that was a problem with the Mopars. I think the throttle body on the stock 6.1 is as big or bigger than the DP. And since we want to rehash some of this stuff, where was the concern for my old Six Pack car when the 396's and the Fords ran 5 tenths ahead of me. Where was the sympathy? Some of yall are a little one sided. I got a better combination now and I'm a bad guy now. Didn't realize I had changed with the new car. Just goes to show ya.
