Default MuscleCar Milestones - 2008 Challenger article

Here is one of the best cover pictures of the Challenger on a magazine and a good article.

He talks about the current Challenger but also taking it to the extreme by mods.

He references the 6.1L and I got the magazine at Barnes & Noble.

It'd be kind of interesting to see a Super Charged Challenger 6.1 against the GT 500......artificially aspirated matched up.....the 'Stang wouldn't stand a chance....

That is a true statement... I have been talking a lot about the forced air Ford and GM have been going to. Hemi on the other hand has had tweaks done to it, 2 spark plugs to help in flame travel, VVT and varible displacement. And to go to a supercharger is tuner and aftermarket stuff. I love superchargers, but when a factory has to go to it to keep up... well thats just lazy or stagnant engineering. I'm glad the boys at Dodge have stayed the course and try new ideas and keep it fresh.

Our first vehicle will be a Vortech Supercharged 6.1 SRT8 Challenger(Cuda).

We've been approached to have it reviewed with a GT500KR.

Our car won't be done until early July.
