RE: 4.7 HP Ratings

For 2002 they might get the 240HP. For example, the 360 got more HP in the
new Ram too (not sure how much) and that's carrying over to the R/T, so I
could see the Dak's 4.7 getting upped to 240 too for 02. I saw the new 360
in a Ram at the local dealership, got a BUNCH of pics of it, that thing
rocked BTW. Anyhow, it's deifinately get a better intake system, and it sure
rumbled more through the tailpipe than older 360s Rams (sans Indys/SS/Ts).
I'm hoping to get a test drive in it soon. But it's a 4x4 4 door so I don't
know how much I'll be able to tell.....

Too bad 02 4.7s in Daks don't get the GCs 270HP!

I`d like to know how the Daks lost 5 HP in the 4.7. I
distinctly remember 235 HP when they first came
out.(Not a gripe,just an observation) Steve P.
