Make/Model: Chrysler 300C SRT8

Year: 2006

 

Special Modifications: I bought this car years ago and actually did six New England winters with it as a daily driver when it was in more ‘stock’ form. It has always been a great car and although a little on the heavy side still moves on down the road for a big land yacht (11.91 @ 117mph). It sits in the garage most days now as I got a little ‘winter beater’ (also featured in this category) to keep the SRT8 out of the snow. 🙂 I don’t see a whole lot of the first gen 300c SRT8s much anymore and love taking it to Cars and Coffee. It rides a little ‘firm’ but it is still my comfortable ‘Old Man Car’. 

It features a 405cid Gen III  Hemi based stroker 11.75:1 Ported and Polished cylinder heads with Manley valves, springs and retainers, SRT MaxPlus Camshaft, Melling Oil Pump, Eagle Crank and Rods with Mahle Pistons, Viking Transmission (NAG1) with 2800 Paramount Stall One Piece 4″ driveshaft from The Driveshaft Shop, WaveTrac mechanical LSD with DSS axles, ST Adjustable Swaybars with Eibach Coilovers, Front/Rear Strut Tower braces with weld-in subframe connectors 20×9 (front) and 20×10 (rear) flow formed wheels (-50 pounds in total over the stock pieces) Engine and Trans both tuned using HPTuners High Flow Cats with Pypes 3.5″ exhaust
