Hellcat-swapped 68 Charger (Roadkill) vs Hellcat-swapped 67 Dart (Fast N Loud)

[Bru]

OK, it hasn't happened yet, but those who have been following the escapades of Roadkill know the 1968 Charger General Mayhem has gone through a transformation and is now equipped with a Hellcat engine and transmission.

They called out Gas monkey garage on Facebook and twitter to build a Hellcat-swapped car and to run them for pinks at the Woodward Dream Cruise. That race is happening tonight for an episode of Fast N Loud, I believe.

Should be interesting, and good for the hot rod community as these guys are pioneering Hellcat swaps. Also, Roadkill is spraying their Charger. Both are sponsored by Dodge so I'm sure they've had a ton of factory support, both in compatibility and resources. Pretty cool stuff.

Gas monkey FTW

 

[blck10th]

Hope gas monkey loses. They build crap as far as I am concerned.

[EmersonHart13]

In the end we are all winners so who cares who wins.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

If freiburger loses the mayhem I'll be pissed.

 

[Bru]

Because I like Roadkill better

 

[Bru]

I heard a Chrysler rep say Pinks but don't recall that from the official rules.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Damn, that dart sounds nasty.



Gas monkey spends a bunch of money to make something look shitty


Freiburger and finnigan spend next to nothing to build a car that looks and is shitty but always in a spectacular way

YESSSSS!

Fuck your coyote.
Fuck your LS3

Bring out the Hellcat swaps!!




Edit: I want that cyclone in the backround too!

I saw on FB that GMG had done a pulley swap and roadkill guessed it was probably making 850hp

But but butt I thought people were bitching the hellcat blower pulley was sooooooooooo hard or impossibru to swap.

Pretty sure I distinctly remember this because I laughed and said swap crank pulley then..........

Edit has anyone run fucking 9s yet in the hellcat challenger?

I love their Rotsun. 4.3L Turbo V6 in a Datsun no fucks given. Its awesome and even sounds good too.

I was thinking it had a clutch system on the upper and the computer used it to limit peak boost, but that was just what I herd and I don't know it to be true

Sooo again why cant the upper pulley be changed? So long as the clutch is still being used. Or is the stock pulley the smallest that can fit over the clutch?

Ill have to research this, I know benz used clutch type supercharger setups but wasn't aware that the hellcat did.

Also havnt heard a single valid reason why someone can change the crank pulley to drive the blower harder.

Oh and about then 9s? Anyone make it yet?

 

[Rent Free]

Ohh and unless I havnt seen the latest with Syp's SS Id love to see him rip off a single digit time slip before the hellcat so he can laugh and say silly mopar nerds and their pig heavy hell kittens!

Supercharged 6.2 Hemi: ?HellCat V8?

Allpar says the

"The new supercharger, sealed for life with synthetic oil, has a drive ratio of 2.36:1 and a maximum speed of 14,600 rpm. The one-way clutch de-coupler improves refinement without detracting from the engine noise. The supercharger gulps air through an Air Catcher inlet port, which replaces the driver’s-side inboard marker light and connects to a twin-inlet, eight-liter air box; the 92 mm throttle body is the largest ever used in a Chrysler Group vehicle."

If that's the case, well then what would be the disadvantage of removing the clutch if its the only thing stopping it from running a smaller pulley? The car can obviously be tuned so I don't see how the SC clutch would be a necessity.

YUP! It can be blower pulley dropped.

Might be easier than doing the crank pulley.... | SRT Hellcat Forum

Yet more reason why Im not impressed I haven't seen or heard about a single digit hellcat yet. Am I missing something? Has anyone yet?

Or is it just to fat and heavy? Maybe? I dunno.......

 

[Bru]

Sounds like the Roadkill guys lost. Rules were stock style suspension and 3500 pounds but Gas Monkey came with a back halved four-link car weighing 2500 pounds.

 

[Rent Free]

LOL 2500#!??? And a 90/10 split weight distribution? Im surprised they could get a hellcat swapped setup that light! Too bad that's what like 1200 less than the Challenger? HAHAHA!!

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

And won by 6/10ths apparently. Looks like they're bad at building race cars if it weighed way less, had more power and better suspension.
