I agree 100% with you there, and was in agreement with you. Strengthening your statement by saying my 5.7 L31 is a hell of an engine. Its even better now that it is tuned.

It sure as hell will, Slightly moded L31 vs Hemi. I am sure I will catch some flak because the 255 HP 350 has a few bolt-ons and the 345 hp 5.7 Hemi is stock. The QCSB Ram and ECSB Chevy are roughly equals in weight. They are both around 5,000 lbs.
