That all depends on the tranny/transaxle you want to use, and how much your willing to spend.

Also has anyone confirmed the hemi doesn't use the same bellhousing pattern as the LA/Mag motors? or even better yet the same as the V10/diesel?

The Hemi Does Have The Same Bellhousing As A Smallblock Mopar,i'm Using A 727 In My Cuda Works Well, But Any Smallblock Bellhousing Will Bolt Up. The Only Difference Is Block To Crank Spacing Is About .100 Taller On The Hemi.you Can Get A Manual Flywheel Right From Chrysler, So That Won't Be An Issue.i'm Already Squirrling Parts Together For A 70 Cuda Hardtop I'm Going To Put A Stick In

Sweet so toss a T-56 behind that new hemi and your ready to rock .100" won't be hard to fix, either shave the BH or cut a spacer, not the end of the world.

We are working with a new business that is doing an engine management setup for the later HEMI engines. Their controller seems to be pretty good, very tunable, and they are doing a great job wringing out power from the HEMI crate motors (510 HP with a cam swap and some mild head work).

The car we are building to develop the suspension system is getting a stroker 440. It is a big heavy motor, but it is also a big heavy car (B-body), and it will make big, heavy power. We are looking well into the 650 HP area on pump gas, with nothing terribly exotic. It'll use Indy heads and intake, stock block, and a roller cam. Bang for the buck, on this car, it can't be beat in that we already have a good block. Should be a lot of fun.

so,i can take passon 4sp,or a tko or whatever with la engine bellhousing,buy the mopar flywheel,and use la series clutch.... cool. sorry,but i want to see it done before i dump a ton of cash and start having to spend a billion more having all sorts of **** custom machined. so an original a833 input shaft wont have a problem behind the hemi?
if someone gets this to work before i get started,i will go this route, but i want to see it first.

and keep us up to date on the ecu program,it sounds great

several of the mopar magazines have done articles on the tremec swap to the new hemi.keisler makes a direct bolt in set up,but i'm still debaiting on the 833 vs. tremec on my hardtop.the 833 doesn't reqiuire any bellhousing modifications.trying to make a more informative site on my cuda convertible http://mysite.verizon.net/ls6ron/
