What kind of backs this up is that Mopar just announced a new aluminum 426 Hemi at the beginning of the year for sale as a street ready crate motor.
i remember everyone saying the 392 would come in north of 550hp. i was expecting closer to 500hp. if theyre working on a 426 im gonna guess 540-550hp tops or a solid 70-80hp for the .6L gain. TOPS.

wouldnt it be easier to use the v10?

anyways i expect a car like that at $60,000 for sheez.
