But, could a Jr.Hemi be any less $$$ or weight than a 5.7?

Would there be a niche for T/A if it costs more,
but weighs less than the hemi R/T,
through extensive use of lightweight materials?

And just as food for thought,
what about the Crossfire's 330hp supercharged
SRT-6 mill for a lightweight T/A?

Why not use the regular and HO 4.7l V-8's? When given the right platform (WJ Grand Cherokee's and Reg Cab Dakota's) they are pretty quick. Putting them in these chassis' will allow for even better performance out of that motor.
