They also offer several other packages, from N/A to Twin Turbo 1000hp....to even the ZL1's supercharged LS9 motor into a Camaro..

I have to say, this is actually pretty damn sweet, but man, it's still Hennessey

It sounds like a tight lsa on the cam. It is a nice ride, and a nice build. Being keen to mopar, I would send my car to krc if I wanted 1k hp out of my challanger. It might be a price tag of 36k, but how much do you think a transmission built for that car to handle that power costs? There have been a lot of - rep on mr. john. Clean car none the less, i'd go elsewhere to have my challanger modded for 1k hp.

I know the transmission for the ZR-1 Corvette is the same as the one in the Viper.....and while the LS3 and the LS9 motor are not identical, I can't see much of a huge difference in the bolt up for it....

If the ZR-1 tranny/Viper tranny can handle 600+HP stock.... probably not as bad as we might think... doesnt mean I'm right tho..
