Just curious who was building one of the new engines for super stock gt. We are looking at one of them really hard to put in Sonny Stancils Old Avenger that Caro drove.

Sonny was telling me the specs at Ennis. Sounds like a killer deal.

Don't get in any rush. Many of the parts are not yet available or even manufactured or even ordered. But the possibility for SS is really nice.

I believe the New Generation Hemi's such as the 6.1L are smaller (shorter), lighter and much more potent than that of an LA such as in either of your cars currently. It would be a fun combo if you're willing to sail into uncharted waters so to speak. Dustin Ward ET# D677 |

2 parts I have not been able to get info on. The 1-3/4 X 4 throttlebody and the 6.2" long rods. The stock rod is around 6.125. Anyone have any info on the rods or throttlebody?

Yes these motors definitely look to be promising. I've heard these things flow over 300 cfm on the intake with no port work. Not to mention how soft the HP rating is for these things. The stock version from 2003 is rated at 345 with less compression and smaller valves. Now they have bigger valves and more compression. Just think how much flow you could get by porting them, and throwing a ported manifold on top. I can't wait see some of you guys build some of these things. I hate to say it, but these motors are part of the new age of Super Stock.

I have a Throttle Body for the 360. I think the Hemi T/Bs are available also. The Hemi Heads are in the book with no price or availablity. For ss the stock head might be used. Next time I have a 6.1 or 2009 5.7 down, I will look at the casting # on the head. The T/B is different on the Hemi vs 5.9.
