Since the original Motown and Mopar Missiles relied on Hemi power under their hoods. Curt wanted to retain elements of that hallowed heritage but with a modern flair. Consequently. he ordered up a crate 426ci Gen III Hemi small-block from Indy Cylinder Head. The combo is based on a production block that's been bored to 4. 090 inches. then stroked the rest of the way with a forged Compstar rotating assembly. CNC-ported factory aluminum cylinder heads provide 370 cfm of flow to the short-block. and a custom COMP Cams 230/234-at-. 050 hydraulic roller camshaft kicks open the valves. For the full late-model effect. a FAST XFI engine management system controls the fuel and spark delivery. The net result is 505 hp in a package that weighs hundreds of pounds less than the original Gen II Hemi big-block. “So many cars these days are getting built with GM LS-series motors. but the new Hemis are great engines as well. Curt opines. “They make a ton of power. and get great fuel mileage. In a few years I think they'll really start catching on. To emulate the look of the tunnel ram of the original Motown/Mopar Missile's Hemi. the small-block 426 uses a dual-quad Mod Man intake manifold from Indy Cylinder Head. It's topped by a pair of 4150-style FAST throttle-bodies.

As RPM's May 2012 deadline loomed. and the Challenger was scheduled to be on display at the Goodguys Nashville Nationals. Curt and company worked 24 hours a day for a week to get the project wrapped up. A testament to the meticulous engineering and fabrication that went into the Goodguys Missile. the car exceeded all performance expectations right out of the box. “To be honest. the first miles we put on it were on the autocross at Nashville. Curt says. “The car sticks. handles. and performs just like a modern sports car should. The fastest lap of the weekend in our class was 35 seconds. and we posted 38- second laps without any tuning or practice. ”

Anyone who followed professional drag racing during the muscle car heyday fondly remembers the cars of Chrysler's Missile program as the wild creations that beat up on Chevys and Fords. only to vanish into obscurity once the company pulled back its sponsorship budget. It's a shame that the Missile program represents just a blip in the annals of drag racing history. and perhaps that's why the Goodguys Missile has been such a hit on the show circuit. “It looks very much like the original Motown Missile drag car. but with a modern twist. says Goodguy's Ed Capen. “Steve Stanford did a phenomenal job with the design concept. and the positive response from people at events has been overwhelming. Everything about this car. from its power and handling to the way it sits. makes it a very well-balanced package. ” So regardless of whether the subject at hand is a straight-line or corner-blazing machine. when a team of skilled car builders pushes the limits of technology. it's hard to go wrong.

The Hemi small-block has been set back nearly 5 inches. and according to RPM. this gives the Challenger a 50/50 front-to-rear weight distribution. The firewall. inner fenders. and radiator core support are custom one-off pieces.
