Hi,Just wondering if this would work. Has it been attempted? Would it even fit?


Wishing you all a Merry Christmas

Maybe  :dunno: not many people care about the gen 2 challenger  :faint:


 :22yikes:


Now the current gen 3 challenger that looks like the original first gen  :poopoke:

I can't recall seeing one but yes it would fit.

Anything is possible, but in naturally aspirated form, the gen 3 Hemi can be just as powerful and much, much lighter. There are race classes built specifically around the combo too, so no big class advantage with it. It would look cool, but Federal emission laws would be a big hurdle to making it legally for a street driven vehicle.

Thanks for the replies guys. I guess your right, even with an aluminum block gen II Hemi, the gen III Hemi would still have a weight advantage. And not to mention emissions.

Thanks again,
