I picked up the January issue of Popular Hot Rodding yesterday; I think it
was Mike who mentioned the Arias 10L HEMI. (Too bad its chebby based.) :-(
Anyway, as I was flipping through the rest of the magazine, I saw a little
blurb on the Kenne Bell SC kit for the 4.7, and this line caught me completely
off guard:
"Many people don't know just how great this 4.7L engine really is, and fans of
Mercedes-Benz might have interest, too, since the motor was designed by MB for
Chrysler just before the D/C takeover."
????????????????
This is the first time I've heard that; any truth to it? Until this article,
I hadn't seen anything that implied it was anything other than a Mopar design.
Anyone know the facts? This just doesn't seem right.
