Pretty sure AJ Berge had a big hand in bringing this project forward Oh, how I would love to hit that order button, if only...

That would be so bad ass in my 69 Charger but, I could never do it.

You would only need a regular Charger then?

I didn’t see a price. Possibly missed it? But I guess it’s one of those things where if you have to ask……..Still curious though 🤔

Expensive but you get what you pay for. Quality costs.

Looks like a very desirable unit except that you have to replace everything behind it.

The few high end Gen 3 Hemi engine building shops have long block packages comparable to this. You can pick and choose the internals and in fact go beyond the level in this package if you want to pay the price. The two big differences between this DSR package and the Hellephant is it has the standard iron BGE block vs the Hellephant’s aluminum block and of coarse it is sporting the new 3.0 Whipple vs the 3.0 IHI on the Hellephant. I suspect that the Whipple is superior performance wise but nobody knows much about the IHI due to the fact that they’ve only seen the light of day on the Hellephants and they aren’t really out there doing anything for comparison. I’ll keep what I think about running that 1150 hp motor on pump gas to myself 🤓

E85 is pump gas

E85 is pump gas

Haha. Yes it is. I was talking to a friend who just installed one of those in a customer’s TRX. I ask him if they were going to run it on pump gas as advertised. His answer to that’s was…. Oh hell NO! That would be crazy 😜

Don't you experience quality problems with E85 pump? The number can go up or down everytime?

It can move but there is room to. I get mine at the same place. It has been around 82-85 all year. I bought a little from another station and it was in that range. I would be more worried about it being under 75%. I check it almost every time

It's pretty much not available around here and I heard that the closest places reading is all over the place.

I would be worried without testing it.

They especially like the top shelf stuff from what I was told.
