475hp???? is there any part of the c230 driveterrain that can handle that amount of power? i mean i wouldn't think that the rearend or the transmission was designed with that much excess strength, but if it was, that would mean that it is near bullet proof in mild builds.

Look at the bright side, in a drag race, you will pass C32s like they were standing still.

I think it would be safe to say that I had about 300+ hp @ the crank.....as far as what the internals will hold....on just a full engine build and no nitrous....probably a good 300-325 rwhp.....I think the tranny would be a questions after that....and guys...i have seen a few ppl post about running 100 shots on these cars....thats not too safe
remember....we already have FI on them....

Question:
If these MOPAR engines are so awesome and produce such high horsepower at such a LOW cost. Why don't they put these engines in High Performance cars like the Viper, Corvette, or Mustang?? Why would they need to develope all the 'higher tech' engines that produce less torque and HP than existing engines?
If Chrysler produces these MOPAR engines, why don't they just put one of these "528 HEMI-610 horsepower V8 crate motor" for their NEW viper?? I'm sure a V8 is lighter than the V10 in the Viper too. NO production car available can compete with that kind of power.
Doesn't make much sense to me.

You can get the Viper crate V10 motor. It's just personal choice. The reason they do more V8's is because they fit into existing cars and the V10 may not. Also there's a lot of aftermarket performance goodies for these well established V8s. The Corvette small block motor is a popular crate engine that's way cheaper than the Hemi. Mustang and Corvette people usually just put a blower on their factory motors as cheap HP. My favorite Hemi is the Chrysler Hemi PT Cruiser. Check out www.hemicruiser.com
