The new Dodge Nitro has a 4.0L V6, a stroked decendant of the 3.5L V6 used in the LH, Concorde & Intrepid. Isn't that the same motor in our Prowlers? If so maybe with some modification we can turn our 3.5L into a 4.0L that makes 260HP and 265 lb-ft of torque.

That would be interesting but why change out the motor for 7 hp and 10 ft lb of torque?

But the crank is kick a**. It's a twisted forging and very strong. Can you say STROKER? I wonder why I knew that?

There is also an east-west version in Pacifica for the 2007 model year.
