Default World's first 6.1 liter Jeep Commander.
Vs. My mid 13 second Regal GSE

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpVOT...layer_embedded

A few months back the 5.7 in this commander kicked a rod, so it was swapped out for a 6.1 out of a charger... Apparently this charger had a couple things done to it, because this motor is nasty. K1 rods, forged pistons, ported heads, forged crank, ARP 2000 rod bolts.

It's pretty outrageous from a dig.

Considering it weighs in at 5200lbs.

When I first looked at OP's user name I thought it said goatse, I was gladly mistaken.

At least you got him from a dig. Are the ported heads the only known power mod?

It's a low compression forged 6.1L. It was built for boost.

Do happen to know how low? You plan on throwing some boost on it? My dad had one buy he didn't like but I think if he had one like yours he would have kept it....nice sleeper
