SRT10KLLR Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Hey Les Ill come up there and show him how fast a SS is with a couple of mods if you would like. Just dont tell him about the 150 shot. lol Besides Ive been looking for an excuse for spraying my truck ever since i dumped my exaust and cut the cats off.They were talking about stock for stock a Hemi vs SSS but if you want to see what a Hemi with mods can run there is a guy in OK that is running 12.0's N/A and shooting for 10's with nitrous. http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Brad-370-NA_139870.htm I think they are very close and since not all are built exactly the same sometimes the Hemi will win and other times the SSS will win.

rivierakid55 Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 i think the reg cab hemi might have the slightest advantage if both trucks are untuned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2006LS2TB Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 IMO it'll be a drivers race, whoever spins the most will lose. If the SSS was AWD I'd put my money on the SSS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2006LS2TB Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 the SS all the way. The Hemi gearing is all wrong for racing The gearing's not much worse than a SSS. I think dodge should've made 4th the 1:1 gear, that would help alot. But both vehicles are 1:1 in 3rd, with the SSS having slightly better rear gearing 4.10 vs. 3.92. What size tires come on the SSS's, 275/55? The dodges come with 275/60-20's which are 33" tall. 275/55's are 32" tall. The gearing won't be enough of a difference to make or break the race between the two. No doubt the chevy's tranny are far more efficient..

2006LS2TB Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 (edited) i hate to say it, but thats a good looking dawge. i wonder what he's got done to that motor? it really blasts out of the hole and it sounds beastly. It's a 370 CI stroker with I think a 3k rpm stall, 4.10 gears, etc.etc. And I think at that time he was running way too small of a cam. He had the same cam I have in my truck which is a 216/218 with .541/.544lift on a 113LSA.

Les Hall Posted April 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 2wd SS's are 3.73 yep,,mine says it's a( 3.73 - locking diff. ),,I assume thats possi-track?,,,I know my 2wd always spins both tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2006LS2TB Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 I stand corrected. I thought they were all 4.10 geared. In that case if the SSS has 275/55's and the ram has 3.92's and 275/60's there geared almost identical. I still say it comes down to the driver.

sdimedude Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 dont stock 2wd v-max's run high 14s stock? my buddies stock rc 2wd hemi ran 14.90@89 bone stock. fastest i have seen a stock SS run is 15.2 at the track but it was AWD. I have put down a [email protected] completely stock. I think I could get it to go faster if I would of went when it was cooler out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
