Ahhh, I'm out right now,will let you know when more comes in ! I remember reading about a guy who attained 700 mpg,but that was for a "Ducted Prop drive" I am not an engineer or mechanic,but just think if this genius can do this why cannot it be 'tech-tweaked" for HEMI !?!? Here:The wing that he created for a top alcohol dragster allowed that vehicle to go from a regional contender to second place in the U.S. Nationals. He helped create weapon carriage methods and flight profiles that increased the range of the F-15E by over 40%. Rob designed a ducted prop drive for a competition car that achieved over 700 miles per gallon. While the leader of McDonnell Douglas' National AeroSpace Plane (NASP) vehicle performance team, he led analytic investigations in sonic boom noise abatement, chaired multi-disciplinary trouble-shooting teams, and directed the group that developed the unique configuration of that aircraft DARPA knows of this guy and so does NASA ;so perhaps Nardelli & Crew shall want to discuss things with him. I know I'm that I have not contacted him to "discuss" a Challenger that can/will attain even a smidgeon of that # ,say 426mpg :but I, Ragamuffin &: Trek_Aerospace_About_Rob
