[Ch...] Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Congrats on Retirement Greg. Should've got the Hellcat and maybe I would have measured your supercharger. Imagine how fast you could get around the burbs.

[Gr...] Posted March 3, 2020 Author Share Posted March 3, 2020 Would of loved a Hellcat but very cost prohibitive, also it would of cost me a divorce lol. This is a 2020 GT AWD. It has the suspension,track performance pages and other components of a scat pack hemi charger but instead of the hemi it has a 300 horse 3.6 V6 with all wheel drive.

[Ri...] Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Please sign in to view this quote. Fun fact... all hellcats come with diamonds in the engine. 😃 Due to the torque output, they friction-weld diamond coated washers on both ends of the crankshaft gear.

[Ch...] Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 True story. The fact that you can go to the dealership and just buy an 840hp car or order a 1000hp Hellephant engine is f%cking crazy. The joke around here is about the third generation hellcat owner. The first owner of the car is probably a collector, the second owner might be an older guy with money, but by the third owner it's high school kids and when high school kids can get a car with 707HP then we're in trouble.

[Gr...] Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 Back in the early 1970's I worked part time for a gentleman by the name of Gary Dyer. He was a driver for Mr. Norm's Grand Spaulding Dodge race cars. He also owned Dyers Blower Service. I used to machine aluminum intake manifolds to adapt GMC 4-71 and 6-71 superchargers to car engines. He is now eighty years old and his company Dyer's Blowers http://www.dyersblowers.com still exists in Argo, IL. He is still the go to guy for superchargers used on fuel funny cars and AA fuel dragsters. He just had old school inspection equipment for checking these things out but boy did they help make some horsepower especially on the second generation hemi engines. Back then they were making 2500 hp on fuel now a days upwards of 10,000 hp.
