I read about that motor a while back in a Mopar magazine when the 5.7 liter HEMI was coming out. They said the bigger motor, that was basically bored and stroked was going to go into the passenger cars while the smaller HEMI went into the trucks. Seemed odd to me at the time, but I'm not complaining.
Maybe Chrysler wanted to put it into the cars but did not have it ready yet. If the Charger comes out with that motor, and the car looks cool,you could add a supercharger and the thing would absolutey smoke most anything out on the street!
I love my PT, but I'm sorry to say mine would be up for sale. There is nothing like the sound and feel of a built Mopar V8. It just has to be in the right car, and for me the 300 is not it.
