400 has 9.980” deck height (B block)

RB blocks had over 10.7”

Therefore a 400 used the low deck block


Using your logic a challenger is a challenger. Unless it’s got funny flares hanging off of it, then it’s a wide body challenger. And there would be no such thing as a narrow body challenger lol

We didn’t call it a narrow body until we had a widebody. There can’t be a big block unless there’s a small block. If there’s no tall deck block you cant have a low deck block there’s only one deck height! That’s it. A 400 is a 400 period.

What’s wrong with saying low deck 400?

Why does that disturb you?

I understand that mopar never built a 400 using a raised block but still, a low deck (9.980) block is a low deck block

God invented those just to piss guys like me off…

Would be in the bone yard looking for blocks. Pop a hood and get all excited when I saw the pad next to the distributor

Psych!

Im sorry but i call bullshit on some of this. Nobody who has had a hellcat, or was in the market for a hellcat, then said **** it and ordered a V6. Anyone who was or has ever been seriously in the market for a hellcat is not buying a v6 mopar. stop it

Dodge is not the only brand and if you ordered a hellcat and then the price goes up or the intrest goes up, there are a ton of other cars which are similar enough that you can go get one
I did…. 🤷 so I guess 1?

There are more people in this country with money who could care less about interest rates. They buy what they want, and when they want to buy it regardless of the price or ADM. These cars will all be sold, but apparently not to some people on this forum.
True.
But the Hellcat has been out how many years now? Widebody and HO versions since 2018?
Those with money and desire, already have them.
Maybe they want a Ghost or KD but I doubt they are lining up to pay 25k over for a Super Stock they likely bought in 2020 for 8k off sticker.

Those with that kind of money seem to chase the latest and greatest. Only thing Dodge has in that arena is a car they haven't officially released yet. I guess they have their Banshee as well but that is a 2024 car.

I would think those with deep pockets are chasing Z06s and GT3s not Hellcats.

They already have them, too. They want the last year Hellcat to add to their collection lol. Let's face it, what's 25k over list when you have millions or tens of millions? F the principle of it I'm going to snag one, too, no matter the cost because money would not be a factor. Just the way it is. Wish I was rich, which is why I have to hang onto my 2019.

I don't think the plaque will matter in 20 years.
Is a 72 Chevelle SS worth more than a 70?

The only car that is worth "more" is the 7th car. Thats it. It will have the plaque, the performance, and everything else the last Hellcat would be for a collector.

No reason at all to pay extra for a run of the mill Redeye, SS, or Hellcat. Special edition cars are a small step above those. But its the 7th car that is the halo of the group. So those people with FU money, that is the car they will target.
