5.7 Hemi cam lope

[jmt8706]

Has anyone else noticed our engine's have a nice lope from the factory cam? I've noticed it most in my garage, or next to the building in a drive thru. Just thought that was cool. It's the first "Hemi" engine I've had.

Yeah, kind of. I notice it when I back out of my garage. The unequal firing intervals of a cross-plane V8 contribute to it as well. I think there is a rule written somewhere that you cannot officially call it a lope unless your truck shakes.

Hahaha...What lope?

I never really noticed either, but I’m used to lope that makes the engine sound like it’s stalling and a vacuum canister is needed so braking isn’t lost.
