#16 is painted, chassis is done, headers built, motor is dynoed, now 'some assembly required' to get to the Gators. First 5.9 probably in G/SA. Large driver is a problem with minimum weight.

Awesome news Jeff. Any idea how much your 5.9 engine weighs vs the Hemi?

I would think they are close in weight. They both have alm heads & intake. I'm not sure if the hemi block is a little heavier.

I guess Mopar got shipping weight for the Hemis at 3,100 while the 5.9 is 3,200 so there wouldn't be an overlap in classes between the 5.7 and 5.9?

Myron, the original packages ran AA,A & B with the 6.1, D,E,F with the 5.7, and G,H,I with the 5.9. I really don't think I can get below I/SA because I'm a fatso. But I can throw my 160 lb son Frank or 180 lb Joey (both drove T/STK) and move up a class or so. The 6.1` is now in AA & A only.

I thought that was what I originally heard for the spread in classes. Good plan to spread them out into as many as possible.

The last 09's are near completion. Will be 100, and then the 10's come. I have # 80 waiting, 81 is waiting on the first 5.9, then 98 and 99, and I think Doug Duell got # 100. #95 is for a friend from N.O. and it will also go to B & B. It's been a long period, but Mopar got it done and will do some more. All we need now is a 392 and a blower. Don't be surprised. I withdrew from Gainesville, just out of time. Will take the DP powered Duster and try that again in SS. I plan on running in the CIC race at No Problem Sportsnationals with the Challenger. More as it unfolds.
