Any Ideas On Hp Limit Of A Hellcat Shortblock?

[no1special 36]

What's the highest hp you've heard with a stock hellcat shortblock? Any thoughts on what they will take before you start getting failures?

Demon Performace is now offering fully built hellcat short blocks. http://www.hellcat.org/threads/demon-performance-forged-hellcat-engines-and-engine-parts-now-available.18765/

17psi is the limit??? I don't think so

How far were y'all able to take that last hellcat before the manifold blew?

So what do you folks think a stock short block could take, horsepower wise?

[Blue Blur 45]

1100.

was curious about this also. With the 6.1 blocks and such harder to find I am wondering how viable the 6.2 block/short block would be. Been trying to look for more information on it and the truck 6.4 block but seems some say the block is strengthened and some same just cooling around cylinders changed.

truck 6.4 and hellcat 6.2 are same block if I remember right. I know of a few pushing a bit over 1000hp on stock block and heads.

Are we talking RWHP or CrankHP?

I was asking about either. Just trying to get a point of reference

How about this: What would be the limit on a 6.4 hemi given that the rods and pistons were changed to performance forged parts? Could it stand toe to toe with a stock 6.2?

[srt5939 159]

i'd say yes without a doubt

It's a good read about the 6.2

Interesting.

"Inside, the Hellcat features forged pistons, which have significantly more “meat” above the top ring than the naturally-aspirated Apache piston."

Because they've been reading the boosted forums for 392's as well
