2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon

Dodge Releases Detailed Specifications of the Demon

All of us have been wondering how a production car is able to pull a wheelie, so Dodge has released some incredible facts about the car. Starting at the bottom, the Hellcat block wouldn’t handle the power, so a new cast iron block with deep skirts is bored with deck plates and filled with forged goodies. The crank journals are induction hardened, and the oil system is new. The valvetrain gets 33% more oil to keep it cool, and the piston jets are twice the size of the Hellcat. In total, the Demon has 62% new parts compared with the Challenger Hellcat. Owners that opt for the crate of accessories will have 840 horsepower at 6,300 rpm and 770 lb-ft of torque at 4,500 rpm. Those numbers are made possible with 100 octane race fuel, which can only be used with the tuner included with the crate. xxx

Not only does the Demon have the largest production hood scoop, the air box measures a staggering 903 cubic inches. At wide open throttle, the intake sucks in 1,150 cubic feet per minute. To put that into perspective, a quarter-mile run would use 173 cubic feet of air, or the lung capacity of 816 adults. The radiator and intercoolers are rated at 258 kW of heat, which could boil a quart of water in 1.2 seconds. The fuel injectors flow 1.36 gallons per minute, while most shower heads are rated at 2.0 gpm. When the spark plugs fire, each piston, and connecting rod is hit with 11 tons of force. They have somehow built an independent rear suspension capable of 2,500 lbs of weight transfer to lift the front wheels. The 9″ ring gear is hit with 11,164 lb-ft of torque at launch. The axles have 8 ball bearings in the CV joints with 41 spline connections. The press release has a dozen more facts that are hard to believe, but they all add up to a seriously well-engineered automobile. We hope some of these hardcore parts will be made available for pre-owned Dodge Challenger.

Engineers have somehow built an independent rear suspension capable of 2,500 lbs of weight transfer in order to lift the front wheels. The 9″ ring gear is hit with 11,164 lb-ft of torque at launch. The axles have 8 ball bearings in the CV joints with 41 spline shafts. The press release has a dozen more facts that are hard to believe, but they all add up to a seriously well-engineered automobile. We hope some of these hardcore parts will be made available for Challenger owners because building a car as capable of the Demon with aftermarket parts would be well over the $84,995 retail price. Stay with us for all your Demon updates and listings from our dealers.
