Chrysler Ready To Share the Hemi?

RE: Chrysler Ready To Share the Hemi?
That may be true. I don't know. Besides, in 20 years, this will all be academic anyway. For the few people that can afford $37.85/gallon gas, the only car that will be available will be a Cherry (or is it Cheery?) that's built in China.

Hyrdogen on demand! :-)
OR
Sweet Sorghum produced ethanol! I can't remember what I was watching, I'm thinking Beyond Tomorrow, but they had SAAB testing cars and they indicated there was a lot more energy in a gallon of Alcohol than in a gallon of Gas. They said it still has to be 15% gas for lubricating purposes. They indicated in the 30's Model T's were running around on alcohol.
Top Fuel Dragsters use 10% alcohol (albeit Methanol) so there must be some energy in it.
My dad always said in the 80's during Gasahol, that the alcohol burned at higher temps and that was concern for valves burning?
Anyhoo, as oil approached $140 a barrel, I think OPEC will put cut much of its own business (or at least push enough people into making profit on fulfilling the energy need with alternatives for some change).
Someone will figure a way to produce this energy more efficiently. There'll always be a need for speed, it's just a matter of how to produce it!

It's all good. If it can ignite, expand, and push a piston connected to a crank, I'm indifferent to its chemical make up or origin is.
A stump pulling torque monster is a stump pulling torque monster in my book.
Again, think top fuel dragsters....do we care that they're burning something that doesn't resemble what we burn in our cars?
I'd rather give my $4 a gallon to an American farmer than an OPEC bazillionaire who might be funding some fundamentally confused zealots with all his superfluous cash.
