QuoteAt the heart of this Charger sits a Mopar 392 HEMI crate engine. As good as this motor is, engine builder Gary Stanton found a way to make it even better. Mopar won't give us all the details as to what's in this engine (they need to keep some secrets), but we do know that, in addition to the Mopar cold air intake, the compression has been bumped up to 10.5:1 and the engine was given a 6,700 rpm redline. All told, this HEMI is able to make over 650 horses on 104-octane gas. Not bad for a naturally-aspirated engine.

Even for a new Charger with a new engine this is pretty good!  :o

that thing's my avatar on the other forums I use.  I didn't use it on here 'cause I figured y'all would have my head on a platter or something :P


It's a nice car though.   It'll be nice to see if it can win, at least it's representing Mopar....

well, now I know what to build my car to knock off, since I was gonna build the LeBaron for drifting anyways.  I just wish I have the budget they do.



anybody got a hemi block laying around that they wanna sell?

OK OK OK...

Maybe I'm wrong but i think someones on the crack pipe...
they said that engine was a 392... what does that mean?
392CI? who uses IC anymore?
when I think of a 392 Hemi I'm thinking about a 1957 Chrysler.
That hemi pictured is not from a 57 Chrysler. so I'm thinking it has to be the 6.1L Hemi. but even if it is the 6.1 how does that equil 392? there are 61CI in a Liter... that means a 6.1L is realy 372CI engine...

am I missing something?

The new 6.4 liter that is supposedly supposed to be going into the new Challenger is 392 CI
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Especially if they have access to the internet.

from what I understand, the drift car is helping to test out a couple things for the Challenger's motor.

The drift Charger's hemi is 392ci, they bored/stroked the 6.1 for old time's sake, as well just since "392 Hemi" just sounds cool.


EDIT: I think it might be a new forthcoming crate motor for next year's Mopar Catalog.

The lowdown on the 392 Hemi is this.

When SRT originally built the 6.1 Hemi, Mopar Performance originally wanted to sell a version of it as a crate engine.  SRT (a separate "division" with the Chrysler Group...Like AMG with Mercedes-Benz) would not let them do it saying that they wanted the 6.1 to be exclusively an engine available in SRT vehicles.

Mopar Performance decided that if SRT was gonna play that game, they would just build their own stroker Hemi and that's how the 392 was born.  They bored and stroked the 5.7 (they didn't start with a 6.1), made some other mods, and VOILA!  392 Hemi (6.4 liters for you lovers of Metric measurements).

Now...having said that, as this engine was built to sell exclusively as a crate engine (final testing is going on right now) cances are pretty slim that it will be available in the Challenger.
I ain't got time for pain, the only pain I got time for is the pain i put on fools how don't know what time it is.
