@@nexgenrevamp2976 you are right, the charger is a better platform for a barra. They still handle like shit tho so it would need some serious suspension re-engineering.
@Lukemaloney1170 Pretty much gave the reasoning youself as to why an engine swap in that type of vechile could be more work than its worth. At an entry level for most racing the K.I.S.S theory works well. Where in drag racing a high powered engine swap may be beneficial and high on the want list. In any racing where corning is involved, handling and braking setup may be higher on the to do list than high horse power, at least when starting out.
Great Video Bud
A barra in that dodge Ute you’ve worked on would be awesome for this
@lukemaloney
Interesting platform choice, though there is a reason they made the Charger with a shorter wheelbase.
