A friend of mine that was at Carlilse had his '03 HEMI Ram 1500 RC 2WD
dyno'ed that same weekend and his pretty much pulled the same number.
His only had about 600 miles total on the odometer, so I suspect that after
a few
thousand miles of run in time it may do better......
I told him the same thing Bernd just said
about this one.........
So yours isn't the only Hemi with a lower than expected RWHP ##, this seems
to be about normal for a stock Hemi.....
