Tony Stewart has been behind the wheel of almost everything - from open-wheel cars to stock cars, from dirt ovals to Daytona.

Bringing a new manufacture to pro stock would not be a overnight thing. The alternative Tony could have would be a Mopar body with the GM engine. Tony has run GM in his Sprint car operation. He could have a MOPAR built this year and use the rest of the year testing to be ready for next year when Leah gets back into the dragster. Just thinkin.....

I don't follow PS, but I am pretty sure someone tried to run a Hemi in the last few years. The platform is still out there, but the rpm limit, and I'm sure a few other things, take away the advantages of running a hemi style cylinder head. AR would be able to explain that better, as he was in the world at one point, as well as knowing the class history from announcing.
Alan Prusiensky has, and I believe Brandon Miller's engine is a Dodge.
The ugly elephant in this potential Pro Stock room is there's no way in the world a new Charger body, a huge piece at 206 inches long and 7 inches wider than a Camaro, would be competitive in Pro Stock and I don't believe the Challenger is aero enough either. I've never seen one competing in Pro Stock since the 70s. Guess he could run an Avenger but that's pretty old school and ugly as hell to boot.
Tony would either need Dodge's blessing to run a Camaro or a Mustang or else run a different class, like FSS or AFX, where Challengers are competitive. An AFX car would be a similar experience for him.

EE ran a Dart in 2016 for Elite, which was the last year for that production car.
