The problem with the hemi trucks is not the motor it's the tranny, shifts like a grand-ma, besides it is a truck and just a 5.7 liter motor. Want a fast truck AND a dodge, my brother has a dodge deisel 4X4 four door with bullydog, put that sucker on the third level and it flat rolls, especially taking off in 4-wheel drive! He has raced ford and chevy diesels with programmers and hasn't lost yet. I would love to see his 60 foot at the track.

A chip and exhaust are a diesel trucks best friend

i can promise you this had the exaust cuz the rig sounded great made me wanna fix my 99 f250 PS

I clocked my buddies 98 manuual reg. cab ford powerstroke at a 120mph in front of me which is flat cookin in a truck. but his truck has a chip, exhaust, intake, bigger turbo, and 3.73 gears with a eaton locker. Hes got the fastest truck in my area he has beat every truck around. The best was him smokin a brand new Dodge Cummins Big Horn with a chip by about 6 trucks lengths

That is because Chevy will always be superior to Dodge !!!!

i do like the oldies though!

the newer models are just crap these days (since the major updated body style).

**Krazy351w** · 01-04-2007, 09:26 PM

its sad how dodge has started makeing a 350 v8 and trying to say its a hemi they should keep making their good 360 and make it a true hemi instead of tis new fake shit. And i can say the same shit about ford. Why in the hell did they replace their 460 and 351 and 302 with these 4.6l engines and 5.4 l engines be smart like chevy and improve on what you already got!

well guys i found mr powerstroke about 30 mins ago. Sadly my 3.4 couldnt stand up to the challenge of the 7.3PS. Talked to him after the race and he said hes put about 10k into it but wouldnt specify what the 10k bought.

buddy of mine said supercharger, i was curious as to a custom job of doing both. its it possible and would there be any real benefit to supercharger and turbocharger?
