Ram truck 426 hemi
Has anyone heard if they'll offer a 426 Hemi and a 3/4 and 1 ton truck? With Ford and GM coming out with a large gas motor haven't heard anything about FCA.

Ram 6.4 puts out upward of 500hp stock in some other applications so it seems there is some room to tweak the 6.4 before they roll out an entirely new engine. This seems more a case of Ford and Chevy/GMC catching up with Ram rather than the other way around. By far the biggest limiting factor to the 6.4 Hemi in the HD trucks is the horrendous tranny they paired with it (gear spacing, not reliability.... for once with Dodge/Ram). 2019 Rams are rolling out with a new 8spd tranny that should be a HUGE improvement.
:h Ford and GM are trying to catch up? You cannot compare a hot tune in a car to what a truck engine is capable. Not to mention the fact of the horsepower GM is putting out in their 6.2's in the cars or Fords coyote variants.
