It's a RCSB 2012 Ram R/T
Comes stock with a 2600 stall converter and 4:10 gears w/posi
For now power goal is 500-525 at the wheels. I can make more but the trans can't take it.
Once I can get a reliable built trans and the ported heads and cam go in I'll shoot for 600ish. There's just no point right now when I know it'll kill the trans.

Theres a stock 5.7 here that just went 13.9x. Think the new ones must be faster!

There's a bit more to it than just the blower and headers too.....and it's in the 13's already NA. I dunno how he did it because I haven't seen anyone else duplicate it but one guy with an R/T went like 13.75 in a stone stock truck.
I'm not chasing any records anyway...just building an amusing weekend toy/show truck. I'm probably adding 250-300lbs right now with the audio. If it's a solid low 13 second truck in full street trim than that's all it needs to be.

I think your numbers are a little low myself...but we'll see what happens.

I've already dynoed north of 350 at the tires on a DynoJet 248C in NA trim pulling in 3rd gear with 2 back up pulls within 5-6HP...all uncorrected.
Dyno crap - YouTube
Also did 5-6 runs in the 310 range with JBA short headers, stock cats and zero engine tuning before tuning was released for these newer trucks.
We'll see how it all shakes out. If it's not where I want it I'll go ahead and throw in the cam and ported heads. The 6.1 manifold that's going on is Modern Muscle's Stage 2 port job in anticipation of adding ported heads at some point anyway.
