Building a Hellcat Short block right now. Need wiring/harness suggestions from people who have done it.

Hello,

I am building a Hellcat block with 392 forged internals. ( stock crank, drop in rods and pistons) It will be getting hellcat heads, supercharger and a custom cam.


I have no idea how I will control this engine yet. The car will be a 68 Charger. Full manual valve body 727. What should I be looking for? What would make the most sense as far as a computer?

Thanks for any advice, and if you need any more specifics from me please just let me know and I will do my best to answer.

Ring gap and pistons would be a concern as a 392 is N/A and the kitty is S/C. Also the location of the top ring maybe higher on the N/A engine causing issues above about 8 psi. I would ditch the powdered rods and go with the best rods and pistons you can get made in USA. Quality goes in before the name goes on. Blown engines require tlc and attention to details from tuning to assembly don’t skimp on hardware and gaskets.You need to connect with guys that run them hard for another perspective repeatedly.

Thanks for the reply. I agree. I am using a Factory 392 forged crank, and the rods are Molnar PWR ADR, with 2618 Bullet pistons that are ready for boost. The rods and pistons were sold as a package and were marketed as " drop in".
