Featured on the HOT ROD Network, our Gen3 454 HEMI Powered 1971 Dodge Dart build is hitting the Road for the 2019 Drag Week. You can read about the build on the HRN here: https://www.hotrod.com/articles/mmx-building-800hp-7000-rpm-street-hemi-drag-week-dart/

We focus heavily on new Gen3 HEMI powered vehicles (Challengers, Chargers, etc.) from Dodge / Chrysler around here, but we absolutely LOVE our restomod hot rods as well. You can always stop by the shop here in South West, VA and find a few old school builds going on at any given time. Read More...

Hot Rod Magazine wanted to find out what a Gen3 6.4L HEMI was really capable of. Just for starters they wanted to throw a twin turbo forced induction setup at it to really push its limits. They knew exactly who they needed to call when they reached out too, Dave Weber, founder and CEO of MMX / ModernMuscleXtreme.com. With Dave's well documented past of racing MOPARS since 1971, he knew exactly what they need to make this stock 6.4L HEMI crate engine live and thrive at 1050 crank HP! This included his own forged piston & rod design brought to life by MAHLE and Molnar along with some other very important items that you will read about in the Hot Rod article! Go get your October 2018 edition of Hot Rod Magazine today to read more.

By now everyone has seen the videos, read the hype, and checked all of the insane specs that this new American muscle car by Dodge is packing. At first glance one will see that this beast is rocking a 6.2L HEMI just like the Dodge Hellcat, but not so fast, this new 6.2L HEMI in the Demon is sporting 25 major component upgrades beyond the Hellcat version. Even the supercharger is a 2.7 liters vs. the 2.4 liter Hellcat version which means MORE boost pressure (14.5psi versus 11.6psi)! These are just a few of the new and upgraded goodies for this 2018 Dodge Challenger version. As with all of the other HEMI platforms that Chrysler/Dodge has released over the years, Modern Muscle Performance / ModernMuscleXtreme.com is VERY MUCH looking forward to digging into this new monster and exploring its potential. ;) To find out more about the new Dodge Demon check the official Dodge website here: www.dodge.com/demon.html

For those of you with power adders (nitrous, supercharger, turbochargers, etc.), you can now push your 5.7L HEMI to reach its full potential. Using the drop-in and rod package alone will provide a reliable street horsepower even when used with the factory cast crank, but for those who want to push the 5.7L HEMI even further we are now offering an affordable forged crank option. You will also find a performance bearing option for the serious engine build.
