To answer your question,they were before the Diamler days. Chrysler was working on the next gen 4cyl and the pheonix V6 [World Engines] and also the EV1. Diamler was the one in control that calcelled these and other neet things to inject there items hence the LX platform. Deiter loved the HEMI and focused on that.

Chrysler has reshelved these programs but in the meantime they need something on the dealer lot to satisfy the mpg issues.
