The new Challenger is on the cover of te current Mopar Action. It's also the cover car of MuscleCar Milestones.
The MCM article is on a special version called the Mr Norm's Super Challenger. Unlike the original. this one will be street-legal. Don't have a scanner handy so I can't scan the article right now.
Basically, exterior is custom paint, a six pack-inspired hood scoop, '71 style side scoops, hood pins and '70 exhaust tips. It will also wear 22" Rodtana multi-piece alloys wrapped in Pirelli Pzeros.
Stopping power is by eight piston discs w/ cross-drilled SSBC rotors.
Suspension is a complete Hotchkis TVS performance suspension system, including stiffer front and rear sport bars.
The drivetrain is a 6.1 Hemi w/ a Kenne bell 2.8-liter twin-screw supercharger. It will sit on top of the engine, with an air-to-water intercooler underneath, in the lifter valley. It will have 50% larger fuel injectors.
They're (Kenne Bell)talking about the car making around 900 hp :mrgreen:
Better line up a lot of extra cash :biggrin: :V8:

If I can get to a scanner I'll scan the article if someone doesn't beat me to it.
