    Heads are not a problem, but you do not want an aftermarket cam unless it is turbo specific.

    You need a Cam that is ground specifically for F/I, so a swap is inevitible.

    the srt8 already has the turbo on it and it is driving around. It will be on the dyno monday through friday of next week to finish the tune. We will be posting results throughout the week. After we finish the srt8 and the 5.7, then we have a 5.7 300c to tune, then a turbo srt8 cherokee, then a 426 turbo cherokee, then a supercharged 426 cherokee. We will be busy tuning over the next 4 weeks thats for sure.

    Hanover park maybe. You do not have to forge the bottom end though it would allow for more boost.

    I don't see why it would necessarily be bad for boost, unless the lsa is @ or below 113* ( being 113,112,111, so on, so on)?

    OK...so...

    Custom tune or program needed?

    With that RWTQ value, I figure half shafts and maybe an LSD is needed. Correct?

    Cmes with the Diablo already tuned. Halfshafts generally brake with drag radials, not tq alone, but some have broke on street tires.

    Andy you tease. The guy thats running the Turbo on his 300 srt8 is the guy that does all the work on my car. Let me just say this, his car is nutz. I've been in it a few times through the R&D and it got better every time. I was in it a couple weeks ago and just couldn't believe it. Other than that, I've been sworn to secrecy.
