I heard from a known hemi builder (John Arruzza) from arruzza high performance that mopar performance is going to no longer be making gen II crate hemis, is this true? Can anybody help me find some good information on this.

:shruggy:

I saw his EBay ad.

I really hope not. I was hoping to get Ray Barton to build me one in December.

People have been saying for years that MP crate Hemis were sloppily done.  And the blocks were already being outsourced.  

A discontinuation from Chrysler itself may not change much.

I was able to order a couple of the Hemi blocks back in October of 2015 and they were shipped at the end of February 2016.  At the time, you could see how many were on order with a estimated delivery date.  Went back to order two more at the end of November 2016 and the number still shows valid in the system, but it will not allow you to place a order.  Shows no activity of any kind from the Chrysler Parts Warehouse system as vendor estimates or any other information.  Can only hope that they come back, otherwise, I am afraid that prices will go out of sight for junk.

Would you post this crap if you weren't?  ;)

Sad to see stuff like that in this day and age. I thought the dark ages were over.

Hey people still believe in Santa, the tooth fairy......and worse still (due to them being the cause of most of the wars that happen even now)...many still believe in a God of some sort. Hey let's start a war because my imaginary friends is better than yours. All total madness!

Indy Cylinder Heads makes blocks too, I think.  The gen-2 Hemi isn't going anywhere.
