Yea that's why the NHRA has their own hp handicapping scale for stock class.
The Hemi is like the Boss 429 Ford. Lots of potential if done right.
Did you finish that Charger of yours? I don't think I ever saw a finished pic. Sure is a cool looking project.
I want a 1970 Superbee with a six pac 440 with the ramcharger hood for my Mopar ride (I always like the ugly ducklings I guess). That round tai-light charger would be high on my list of must haves.
