The way I read this whole thing is that the HC Redeye is a special edition package which allows FCA to keep a top line Challenger without pissing off Demon buyers (investors) who were told Demon would be a one year car. The engine is most likely a mild retune of the Demon engine. May or may not have a part number content change.

The 717 hp rating on the “basic” HC can probably get lost in the rounding error of rating that engine. Just my initial thoughts.
