I seriously doubt that...at least as a production option. A crate motor, sure...but not in a production car. What would it go into (assuming Mopar doesn't have a new car we haven't yet seen)? It's way too big for anything they currently make. They could stick it in a truck, I suppose...but the original 426 hemis weren't what I'd call truck motors. I just don't think we'll see big blocks come back at all outside of trucks and the occassional limited production/exotic like the Viper or S7 (I'm not even sure if the Viper's V10 fits the "big block" definition).
