Those pics look excellent, Patrick! Thanks for posting them. I must agree with Jeremiah, though I like that the lower panels are not of the same body color as the earlier discussed point that rocks will tare that up. I also enjoy having the contrasting color.

Paladin, what I would say about the complaint about the SE not having the spoiler is that this will help to cut down on the exterior styling confusion between the different models. We need to have things that will distinguish R/Ts and SRTs from SEs or else it will damage the image value of the R/Ts and SRTs. People who pay extra for R/Ts and SRTs deserve more than just an engine upgrade.

Hmmm. I know its still too early to tell but i was just thinking. I wonder how much room is actually going to be under that hood in the s/e???? Enough to possibly drop a 426 crate motor in? with minimal engine compartment modification and with some suspension and bell housing modification?? Now theres a thought........the preverbial wolf in sheeps clothing.

ORIGINAL: RoswellGrey


ORIGINAL: wallstreetman

So wheres the small back window if it's an SE?
Good point. Also, where's the vinyl top since all SEs had vinyl tops in the '70s. Best color combination possible: Plum crazy body with a black vinyl top.
Vinyl top? There's one retro design I hope I never see. Never liked them....never will, but to each his own.

Dropping in a crate 392 would probably make more sense, 525hp & 510 ft-lbs of tq with EFI and 540hp & 490 ft-lbs of tq. The 426 crate produces around 465hp & 520ft-lbs of tq. The 392 will fit for sure, the 426 is questionable at this point what would all have to be done. Either way, you would have to drop in a different transmission. There is no way a 42RLE can handle anything of that caliber if it would even mount up.
