That's not how towing works.... You don't just put a big/torqy motor in something and be able to tow....


That that probably couldn't turn in a 40 acre field

Hope they beefed up the suspension the 6bt is well over 2x the weight of the hemi that was in the car before

Haha that would throw me off so bad when it went by

Houd approves of this thread.

This, om so many levels.

But I LOVE frankenbuilds, so... Damn son.

Towing usually isn't the problem.

It always seems to be more troublesome on the stopping end of things.

OEM charger brakes aren't enough for a 1300 lb motor, a 3300 lb car "?" And a boat? I don't understand..

Correct.

My srt-8 had breaks much better than this car and they heat soaked terribly. That's just the 3400lb car. Not to mention adding ~600-800 lbs for a 12v and 5 speed, + a boat which could be anywhere from 1,000 to 12,000 lbs (average ski boat being around 4000-6000lbs)

And the lack of trailer breaks on top of all of that.

Sure you could pull it. You'd just never stop the damn thing.

It's bad enough to throw 8-12k behind a diesel and try to slam on the breaks on stop. Now imagine doing it in something that weighs half the weight and has half the breaking power.

Your sarcasm radar needs adjusting
