Under the hood, a Kasey Kahne-driven Evernham Motorsports Dodge R5-P7 race engine has been re-formulated as a fuel-injected 358 cubic-inch V8 that puts 750 hp to the rear wheels. ForPly\u2019s racing theme continues with a functional NASCAR air box, radiator, and a NASCAR 4-speed transmission that feeds the power to a 9-inch rear-end with a 3.60 gear. Combine all of this and the Plymouth is easily capable of 200mph.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-1403\" alt=\"ForPly at zMAX Dragway2\" src=\"http:\/\/tireball.com\/backpage\/files\/2013\/09\/ForPly-at-zMAX-Dragway2.jpg\" width=\"675\" srcset=\"http:\/\/tireball.com\/backpage\/files\/2013\/09\/ForPly-at-zMAX-Dragway2.jpg 816w, http:\/\/tireball.com\/backpage\/files\/2013\/09\/ForPly-at-zMAX-Dragway2-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 816px) 100vw, 816px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Underneath the ForPly\u2019s exterior is just as much collector appeal: the chassis is an authentic NASCAR Sprint Cup COT chassis that raced in the Daytona 500. From custom style rims, to the NASCAR-style carbon fiber front splitter, everything about this vehicle showcases its powerful DNA.<\/p>\n<p>The buyer will not only have a one-of-a-kind race car with true NASCAR dynasty provenance, but proceeds of the sale will benefit the Evernham Family Racing for a Reason Foundation.
