Hemi swap! Hemi swap! Hemi and a G56 or G238! And gears!

A V6 Dakota will never be quick. That's what my Kawi EX500 is for

If I was talking "smack" about all 454s, I would have said....the 454 by chevrolet is junk. So........if I were you, I would make sure you read the post before hand. Also, you may want to consider your claim of "smokes anything on this forum...except a viper". Well...in my other car, I have yanked an RT/10 (stock, with a good driver) at the track by 8 tenths...but I don't go around claiming my 4 popper is faster than any car on this forum....that would be pure ignorance. I am sure that there are a few members that have dragsters, super gas cars, etc. Maybe you should re-think your claim...

I have been in the drag racing industry for a while now, and I appreciate any car that has had a considerable amount of attention, and any car from the factory that gets out of its own way. If it is built well, and makes power, cool. However, I can talk smack about the factory 454 in the GM trucks in the mid 90s. I would rather get a 350 vortec before I got a 454 in a GM truck.

Haha...agreed. My 3.7L of fury will get an intake, exhaust, electric fan, an LSD, 4.10s....and it will still be slow.

Thats what my Talon is for....

wow... i think i have ran into my first dodge forum douche. Chill out man... if you "re read" my post you will see I am referring to your prior post witch nothing was said was said about dragsters,super gas etc.... Now maybe I should have included those in my list of " maybe not a viper".... and I did say "most" witch implies there are some it would not such as "dragsters, super gas cars, etc." So stop being a douche and trying to seem like a cool guy. your not.

Alright...no worries bud. But if you have to understand, if you make a post like you did, you are going to offend someone. And there is no need for name calling, unless you are still in grade school.

Maybe we got off to the wrong start, don't contradict yourself, and no one will call you out on it. That rule typically goes for everyone...including me. And I'm not cool by the way, just have experience.
