why not?
My 4.7, 5spd manual, a few mods, easily takes a stock to slightly modded RT, usually.

You have a 3rd gen with a 5 speed manual? I thought they only came with automatics.
When I was a tow truck driver I towed one but I had to push it out of a parking space so I could get it on the flatbed, it was heavy as hell, i had to have the customer/owner of it help me.
Im thinking the extra 50hp makes up for all the weight?

R/T was not available with a manual transmission; but other trucks were. The 4.7 five speed manuals with 3.92 gears will run as quick as the 5.9 R/T's.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way
