Personally im looking forward to Mopar pulling something out of nowhere, id LOVE for Mopar to jump back on board in good ole' Mopar style by suddenly dropping this new motor for the Challenger that is lower horsepower, maybe like 320 or so but something rediculous like 500 torque hahaha, i would love that so much, i want Mopar back in this thing! im tired of just Camaro, Mustang, Camaro, Mustang, Camaro, Mustang...

I have always been of the school of thought when building my engines that I like to build for TQ, and the HP will be there. With materials these days you can get a high cu. in. engine to spin pretty fast which ultimately results in high peak HP as well so really you can have the best of both worlds.
