This is a sports sedan.
Are you finding the standard Chrysler 300 slow? YouTuber Khal_SRT offers the perfect solution if you are willing to spend the time and money. This was once a regular Chrysler sedan. It is now a 1,000-horsepower rocket for the roads. The Chrysler 300 powered by Hellephant is what you’ve been waiting for.
Dodge Chrysler has been making some of the most thrilling muscle cars on the roads for the past decade, if you haven’t noticed. The Dodge Challenger Hellcat was the first to be built, with 707 horsepower (527 Kilowatts). Next, Dodge introduced the practical Charger Hellcat (626 Kilowatts) and the insane drag-racing-specific Dodge Demon (840 horsepower). Dodge also created the Hellcat Redeye, which puts out 797 horsepower (594 Kilowatts), to further provide American customers with incredible value.
Dodge knows that customers demand unlimited horsepower, so it created the Hellephant engine crate engine. Although the Hellephant engine is too powerful to be put in a production car it doesn’t mean that you can’t make 1,000-horsepower cars from it in your garage.
The Hellephant crate engine has a displacement of 426 Cubic Inches (or 7.0-liters). The massive V8 engine has a supercharger to boost its stock output to 1,000 horsepower (745 Kilowatts) or 950 lbft (1,288 Newton Meters). The engine is priced at $30,000, with an additional engine kit of $2,265, which Dodge claims can be installed on street or off-road vehicles. Evidently, not all people adhere to the model year cut-off.
Khal_SRT’s most recent build series will provide some justification for the cost and effort required to swap Hellephant. It’s not an easy task to transform a Chrysler 300 sedan into a Chrysler 300 with 1,000 horsepower. But the end result is well worth it. We are looking forward to the Hellephant-powered Chrysler 300 at the drag strip.
