The magnum has some cool features: roller tappets etc. Unfortunately
Mopar didnt see fit to modify the stock magnum from its humble ram
tuning per the crate motor config. Why??? Probably the newness of the
ODBII (a guess) and costs associated with retest and certification etc.
I think the future will "wake up" these slumbering motors with more
goodies. I really cant understand why no Viper motored Daks or even
cast iron V10 daks. More cubes = more fun!

Subject: DML: Re: What's Hot Rod's deal?
I got my Sept issue of Hot Rod the other day. In the Magnum story they
had, all they seemed to do was rag on the Magnum motor and it's
shortcomings (to them). They never said if there were any benifits to
working on the Magnum. It kinda pissed me off. Anywho, how come the
R/T
didn't come with M1 single plane intake manifold drilled for injectors?
I
thought it should have.
