LOL, yea, the lil'things. I'm dyin to get a new HEMI and see up close what's going on. Pictures in mags don't allways cut it the way I like it to be cut up for me. I wanna see and touch up close and in person. There a lil'weird looking considering for the past 20+ years of me getting into and tearing down engines, it's been a few sbc and lots of sb chryslers. You kind of get used to seeing a certain something after awhile. And then suddenly, theres this china wall that looks like the great pyramid in front of you, heads that practicaly meet and an intake with a "V" at the bottom. WTF!?!?!?! Ha ha ha ha

I agree, the new Hemi is so intriging. I don't have the $$$ to buy all the ignition stuff for one right now, and am kind of committed to the LA design by all the accessories. Headers, etc.
Bunch of guys on the Challengerz forum have torn into their new ones already. One owner has even blown one up, with a huffer. (cast pistons)

Are you thinking about picking one up?

Did you put a roller cam in the 318?

Yeah, that was the main reason I wanted to find the 89 to 92 motor, to get the hydraulic roller and keep the shaft rockers. (advice from this board) Just the stock one though, had to clean it up a little.
