why is it not being called a Hemi-Cuda?

[/quote]

Because they were never called Hemi-Cudas before. That was just a slang term people adopted to the car…if it were powered by the 426 Hemi.

Is that why they had factory badges on the side of the Shaker that said “Hemicuda?”

The new C&D has an interview with Ralph Gilles, who sez:

> “I can see it being done as aftermarket, but not something we would do lightly as a production model,” Gilles says, for a number of reasons. One, you don’t mess with history. Second, the hot designer thinks, in many ways, that the Challenger was a better design than the ’Cuda. Third, and probably most important, he wants the new Challenger to have its day in the sun—unfettered.

☹ ☹ ☹ Boo.

Hmmm…you’ve got me. But I still don’t think there window stickers actually said HemiCuda. But I might be wrong again

Agreed…definitely doesn’t match the BA’ness of the exterior.

Quick side note. I’ve met Ralph on a few occasions…cool dude, very down to Earth. Also tracks a Viper with something like 600 hp:)
