just marketing, though the 6.4 Hemi seems to have some kind of voodoo magic going on to pull the 4100+ pound sleds through the 1/4 mile in the low 12s bone stock with only 470 HP and the old 5 speed auto, can't wait until the 8 speed auto finally finds it's way behind the 6.4!

The hemi isn't just marketing. Compare the design to the original hemi design and you will see that it is very similar.

If it was just marketing they wouldn't still be using the design in every top fuel and funny car that runs today.

The voodoo magic that you speak of is a constant flat torque curve of 470ft/lbs.

thing is the ESC code is also listed for the truck and durango too in the new jobs codes Can we see new SRT and SS trucks coming as well? Dodge actually was going to SC the 6.1 but the bottom end would not stay in (even without SC the first series had failures)- the 6.1 went through two design changes after going into production. The 6.4 if you read up on it was just like the Phoenix engine currently in their world platform it was a test bed for what's next
