That is what I am hoping for also but not have it detuned. (353 Hemi push
rod - 353HP/353LB or more?)

    I have it on good authority (one person removed from the source) that
the future Dakota R/T will indeed be powered by a HEMI. I don't recall
wether a displacement was mentioned (353?) but apparently, DC is trying to
decide wether or not to add forced induction of some type as well. (i.e.
supercharger) Apparently, their goal is to stomp the Lightning. If true,
happy news indeed. :-)
