Anyone heard of this new 6.6L engine from Dodge?

It's almost at the bottom of the page on wikipedia's Hemi article.

6.6
Chrysler revealed plans for a 6.6L engine for the 2008/2009 Dodge Challenger as part of a plan to produce a higher-performance limited edition car, which has proven to be very profitable for other makes.

Should give new meaning to that old Sammy Hagar tune:  "We go out driving in my 6.6"

I thought it was going to be a 6.1?

Isnt the 400 a 6.6?

Yes.

That's what I heard too but I guess maybe the Camaro specs sent them back to the drawing board.

Cool, just like the 60's.  "They just stuck some kinda ram air hood scoop thing on the Pontiacs boys, better break out the boring bar".

"... Drive past the city, head straight for the sticks"

remember, Wikipedia is NOT your friend. any asshat and his dog can write in whatever they want. until i see it from another reputible source i'd take this info with an enormous grain of salt.

i agree, no mention anywhere of a 6.6 just the 6.1.

[bull]

True, and that's why I'm attempting to verify it here.

Sounds like their talking about the new 392 Hemi that as of now will be a Crate motor. I think its like 525 hp with injection and 545 with a 750 cfm carb on it, tons of torque but I don't remember the #'s.
