The 6.1 HEMI engine is a piston drive with a wet-sump system. This naturally aspirated, water-cooled gasoline motor arrived in 2005 in the 300C Chrysler SRT-8. The infrastructure is similar to the 5.7 HEMI engine, but the 6.1 SRT8 also incorporates racing technologies that allow the vehicle to reach high-top speeds.

Clarification: this is my 2006 Chrysler 300c SRT8 with the 6.1 HEMI (obviously). Since day one it has ran pretty rough, but considering we only paid $6,000 for an SRT8 that was dry underneath with some maintenance and cosmetic issues I wasn't going to complain. Second, the 6.1 intake manifold doesn' t flow (perform) as well as the stock 5.7 intake does on a 5.7, as indicated in the following dyno test of several different manifolds on a 5.7: The other significant difference is the location of PCV Valve. It's not a problem though and would just require a different hose than is on the 5.7's. The 300C SRT8 comes equipped with a 425-hp, 6.1-liter V-8 that allows the SRT8 to run from 0 to 60 in under five seconds. Larger wheels and brakes and a firmer chassis give the SRT8 model a track Can 425 horsepower be obtained from a 5.7 Hemi to match an SRT engine I'm looking to buy my first Chrysler 300 C pretty soon. Yes, and yes, but not without some issues. If you tried to go with a later VVT 6.1 you'd have a lot of grief. If it's an early 6.1 (06-08), the biggest problem with the 6.1 (if you're in a smog nazi state) would be the The 6.1-liter HEMI made its debut in the 2005 Chrysler 300C SRT-8 and remained in production until the end of the decade. It has a power output of 425 hp and torque of 420 lb-ft. While the MDS is absent from the 6.1L HEMI engine, the block and internals are stronger than the 5.7L HEMI’s.
