My bro in law has a used 6 speed with 110000 miles on it. Still runs just as strong as my 19 scat with the automatic. No issues on the oil samples either so these motors are solid and will run damn near forever in stock form. The reason you don't see this very often is because these cars often end up in the junkyard wrecked long before 100k miles.

90%-99% of us don’t need nor should be anywhere near a hellcat, if u not a racer or u dont plan on using 700hp 99% of the time, do not get one, a rt or scat pack is really more than enough for just about anyone, its a nearly 500hp n/a that’s plenty fast.

When I can do smoky burnouts, 0-60 in 5 seconds, and speed along at more than 130 mph in a car that weighs 4400 pounds (+275 pounds for the driver), I don't really need any extra power out of it. I did like your video. It's always interesting to see what other people want out of their ScatPacks. It always brings a smile to my face when I drive it.

Seriously, the 392 platform is exactly "what you see is what you get". It was not designed to be a engine to build upon. The engine is extremely efficient as built. The 6.4 with 485 hp was attained from getting the most out of the parts and pieces used from the factory. It was not designed like some of the other manufacturers offerings. Having somewhat Lower hp from the factory but by using aftermarket parts you can easily increase the power output. If you want big numbers Dodge has you covered with a factory upgrade that has been the gold standard since its inception. Yes you can build the 6.4 to deliver some serious power (like 485 isn't pretty dang serious) but it is definitely not worth it from a $$$ standpoint. For the money spent you could have a Hellcat with more HP, better Transmission, stronger rearend, etc just as the factory designed it to be.

2016 Scat Pack OEM engine. No complaints at all. Pushing 130 MPH at the half mile mark. Had it up to 156 mph before getting close to end of the runway. I've driven my car all over the the Southern US including down to Key West and back to New Mexico. I just went over 139k miles and still running smooth. I call that pretty reliable. When you start trying to make the car into more than what it is, that's when problems happen. Send people my way when they want to hear reports on the longevity of the 392 engine when properly cared for.

A lot of you clowns dnt realize it’s not always about power, it’s also about balance, these cars are nose heavy, resulting in the heavy burnouts.

Whoever told you that the 392 has weak ring lands is full of crap . That only applies to the 03 - 08 5.7 engines . The 392 has decent pistons , along with very strong , beefy forged rods and a strong forged crank . In stock form the 392 heads flow a whopping 328 cfm on the intake side . That makes for roughly 660hp potential naturally aspirated . I have a mild , carbureted 392 crate engine in my 70 GTX that runs 12 's with 3.55 gears and a torqueflite . The heads and short block are bone stock .

I'm a Stellantis/Chrysler Certified Tech that works at a CDRJ dealership. The 392s have a few minor issues, but longevity isn't one of them. Also, lack of the ability to modify/upgrade them isn't an issue either. All it takes is the know-how, proper planning to choose the right parts/path, and a modest budget. If you are having trouble with any of the above, come see me. I can get you a considerable amount of added HP/TQ out of a 392 without a power adder or tearing deep into the engine.

As you said in the video the 392 was built and meant to be a NA motor. Thats the way its always been designed for. I agree if you want to boost it then you should have gotten a hellcat. 2 completely different motors, I dont understand why some boost a motor that was meant for NA use then have to upgrade soo much to make it capable. I just may be biased as I love a NA motor due to it not being so complex and reliable... Have to disagree with you though on reliability. 392 is extremely reliable if taken care of etc. Thats why its such a popular motor to have as well as the 1:1 ratio of HP and Torque. Its a torque monster for sure!! It sounds so awesome as well especially with a H pipe exhaust system. Good vid man, Im watching your other ones

It's a matter of perspective... If you're buying brand new and can afford it , buy the hellcat if you want high power. If you have a 392 and it's paid for... Trade up or modify what you have. Know your limits. The only problem with the 392 is that the pistons aren't made for high boost. Other than that it's a fine motor. The lifter cam issue for 5.7 and 6.4's are a problem for both motors

Three year production, 2019 -2021 may still be lower than 2018 demon production but the package is still in production for 2022. These cars currently are under appreciated. Emmisions suck beans here in Commiefornia, so it is nice to drive legally on the street in the quickest NA production vehicle manufactured today.

My two ProCharged Daytona 392's cost me less than the Hellcat and both are quicker in the quarter mile when compared to a stock or very slightly modified Hellcat. Both cars run mid 10's and have stock motors, transmissions, and rear ends. You save a lot of money doing your own modifications and spending money where it is important is critical when boosting the 6.4. A great tuner and fueling are the most important expenses. One car runs 7psi the other runs 10psi. Both on E85. Over 60,000 miles and at minimum 50-60 passes on the track.

You mention cost but also mention it's on E85. The hellcat is great because it's running more legal boost and it runs on pump gas. Hellcat's really are worth the added cost. By the time you put the same modifications the hellcat has, into a 6.4 to keep up, your back at hellcat costs. It just doesn't make sense. Then, once you own the hellcat, power comes really cheap. There are 1000 and 1200HP hellcats running around with only $7500-10K in mods and only burning pump gas. E85 cats are a whole different level of beastmode. 6.4L just doesn't cut it. Great for what it is, but they aren't in the same league as a cat. And that's just the motor. The hellcat comes with a better transmission, rear end, and gearing.
@Mikes05Hemi
@Mikes05Hemi 2 жыл бұрын
First I'll address the cost comparison. My Daytona 392 special ordered cost me $48K in 2020. New Hellcat Charger in 2020 was starting price 69K. I spent just over 8K on the D1X, injectors, and a dyno tune. I spent an additional 2.5K on the dual pump E85 fuel system. I didn't charge myself any labor for the installation. My car makes 731whp/ 662 lb ft torque on e85. That's 100 hp more than a stock Hellcat. That leaves me 10K for forged pistons and rods if I wanted to do them. The Hp70 is rated for around 700- 750 lb ft torque which is enough to put my car in the high 9's and as far as the rear ends go, a lot of hellcat owners change the rear ends form the 2.72 to the 3.09 that comes in the scat packs.
@RunTowardsDanger
@RunTowardsDanger 2 жыл бұрын
@@Mikes05Hemi scat packs don't have 3.09 stock. That's an upgrade. Second a stock cat on just an E85 tune makes more power than your Daytona. And for that price you could have just bought a 60k hellcat with a better trans and stronger motor to begin with. The great thing about hellcats is they are already set up in the sweet spot to make more power. Blower already sitting on top ready for a cheap pulley swap. Just the pulley swap nets the same power you are at. Then as I mentioned E85 just a tune alone would already have passed your power. There's zero point in buying a 392 unless you plan on keeping it stock because by the time your done upgrading it to be a 6.2 basically you've spent the same amount dodge chargers for a hellcat and you don't even get the perks of owning the hellcat. Just a weaker motor that's not meant for boost. I calced out the cost before i went with the hellcat. It just isn't worth it. Besides without a blower those Hp and torque numbers don't really matter because the hellcat will make peak torque and HP before your NA car does. Plus the better trans and shift points. Nothing against 392s but compared to a hellcat they just don't make financial sense. Everyone I know that ever owned a 392 and wanted more power realized it was always smarter to trade the car in and upgrade to a hellcat before doing any mods.

I’ve NEVER had any problems with my 392 Daytona Charger. It just tipped 78,000 miles and will be 4 years old next month. I’m the original owner as well. My problem with The Hellcat is you can’t use the horse power. You made a comment that told me you’re a young guy. Trust me, I’m not putting you down when I say this. When I was younger, I ran fast cars but with me racing and testing the power, I messed up engines and brakes. I’m 60 and love my Daytona 392 Scat Charger. I’ll jump on it every so often on the Jersey Turnpike or 295. The Monster goes in the shop every time the oil gets down to 9%. I stay up on my maintenance to the T. I would buy another 392 Scat Charger in a heart beat. I plan on tuning my Monster the beginning of 2025. I drive my beast every day. I tell my young 392 Scat and Hellcat owners: You don’t have to race everyone! I try to let them know cops are looking for any excuse to pull the over because they’re young and shouldn’t be driving something like this. I Thank God I’ve never been stopped in mine. The kids a that own these cars call me an OG but I’m glad they listen to me. Like I said, I respectfully have to disagree with you. I truly enjoy My Monster. Respect My Man!

I also had a 94 that was just stupid scary to drive but so much fun. I now have a 5.7 RT/RT and it's all i even want anymore. I sold both my old Vipers to a young man who was like a son to me, and he had been racing over 20 years, but not long after buying my Viper's he crashed and killed himself and his friend. Kinda took the wind out of my sails for speed. I am 69 and have owned dozens of great musclecars like 69 Coronet R/T 440, A BUNCH OF SS CHEVELLE;S, MUSTANG GT'S, SHELBYS AND ABOUT EVERYTHING ELSE cars but now the thrill is gone. I just wish all you young bucks could have experienced the real musclecar era. Didn't take much money to build a 10 second car back then. I am sorry to watch the fun days die. EV? No, not really. Not the same, but i wish you young folks all the fun in the world. It was so much fun buying a 200 junker and putting a couple more into it and then having a cool cruiser back then.

It sounds like you could change the pistons out on your own. I don't know how many miles you have on it but Manley sells a rod and piston set up they say is already balanced, std bore or maybe .030 over. But it would give you a chance to get it ready for any other mod you may want in the future. And if you have the cyd displacement lifters, a good time to toss them in the trash. Check out your oil pump get a new HP unit from melling. I've heard of ppl replacing the lifter with hellcat units. Just do the mods and get it back running good and take your time with it. I know the Kenny Bell kit is 8-9k. But it comes with alot of the little stuff you need. Injectors, rails, fuel pump, blower, ducting, new air filter position and hardware. Oh yeah and a computer. Plus great tech support. Sorry about my last post I was so cold in my garage I couldn't read the screen anymore. LOL I ment the cam broke at 5&6. That chunk fell down in the rods.

If you wanna go fast for cheap dont buy a brand new car. It does not take 30k to boost a 392. If you take it somewhere ya. Do your shopping with shops. Everything is fine in the 392 motor if built correctly for boost. It is a built up 5.7/srt block.

Listen to the people who complain about the scatpack and the lack of power compared to other cars stop it you never going to be happy with what you have. If you had a hellcat, you would be complaining about how it doesn’t put enough power to the ground because spinning aint winning 😂. Car shops and tuners love you complainers because they make a ton of money 💰 off you with all the modding. Keep your car stock and appreciate it for what it is the scatpack is a fun car so stop complaining and being ungrateful. Do you see the majority of mclaren, ferrari, lambo owners mod their cars for speed? Hell no because their cars are freaking fast to begin with maybe cosmetic so really guys and gals this is stupid 😂💯

2013 challenger srt8 owner. I've heard some of the stories myself and it's been a debate at times In my local car clubs. I myself will leave the car mostly stock or N/A. I may do some light mods like the air intake, throttle body, ported intake manifold, and getting the car professionally tuned. Changing the spark plugs and coil packs. I don't know what my future will be like so I may only complete part of what I want done to the car. I'm definitely going to look for a tuning shop around me. I've noticed the ticks and the car will lag on acceleration more so if I stomp onto the pedal. It currently has over 106,000 miles. Active suspension warning comes on but goes away after several start ups.

5000 lbs ? You are off around 800 lbs. And 15 grand will get you safely to 750 hp at a reputable shop with boost, pistons and cam. That is 60 grand total in red eye territory. They are going for around 90 grand man. That is saving you 30 grand. Hell go nutz through some more at the engine and trans and still have 20 grand to spare. The only thing holding the 392 back from boost is the piston rings have no play due to blow by and emission regulations. They expand with compressed air with no place to go popping the top of the piston. Put a set of drop in pistons and your set.

Its only a bad engine if you want to be faster then a Hellcat or are chasing a 10 second ET. If you are happy being a 392 then its a great platform. From the transmission back its built to handle about 520 ft/lbs of torque on the RTs and Scats reliably. So going over that amount of power usually means transmission, drive shaft, and axle upgrades too. Having also dumped a ton of money into my RT to go mid 11’s you gotta draw the line in mods before its Hellcat trade up time. Some guys are spraying the 5.7’s and 6.4’s too which is not a bad option if you are only WOT at the track, have a good tuner, and don’t get greedy with it.

I still own my 2006 Acura TL and I daily ride my motorcycles to offset fuel cost and repairs. I'm definitely back in the market for another 392. I love what it is. It's a v8. v8's retain their value very well. I don't want another challenger but leaning towards the charger or SRT Durango. Keep up the content!

Get the Scat Pack for a daily. Cheaper insurance, I won't say cheaper on fuel cause you can and certainly will get on that throttle regularly. I love mine, it's my daily when I need it to be, it's my road trip car. Bought it new in March 2016 and just made final payment. All stock it dynod at 432 hp and 445 Tq at the rear wheels. That's plenty fun for me. And mines a 6 speed manual that I added a Barton shifter to. The only negative things I can say about the regular body Scat Packs. ...they sell with crap 245 size tires. Getting the Dynamics package takes care of that and gets you 6 piston front Brembo brakes and 20x9.5 wheels with size 295 tires. The stock shifter on the manual transmissions is too damn loose. Go over train tracks the wrong way and shifter shakes itself out of gear. The Barton shifter took care of that. 2 other things. At high speed, sometimes the air coming up along windshield will squeeze by the window seal and make a loud sound like a saxophone stuck on a medium pitch note lol. That's an issue with Hellcats too. There is a window calibration that can be done to help that. Lastly after washing car, there seems to be an endless amount of water that wants to trickle out of trunk lid mounted tail lights section. I leave a microfiber I. That spot and close trunk to let the microfiber soak in and draw the water out. Not a single complaint about my 392 engine with OEM tune and 139k miles on it. A friend has a 2015 392SRT and he has over 100k more miles than me. Keep up with that scheduled maintenance, use the car as intended and it last long time

Zinc additive keeps rotating parts from locking up within reason. No antidote for over rev though. I frickin love the new muscle cars though, especially that COPO Camero.
