Good thread. I’ve been thinking about this for my hellcat swap. I swapped the pan and pick up but that’s all. Does everyone think priming is necessary for a crate engine? Does the factory prime the crates or even do it in new cars?

Thanks, mainly to be able to run full 3” tail pipes with the mini tub and inboard coil overs. I was dumping exhaust before axle in previous combos and didn’t like it

Motor and trans back in for last time! Hopefully. I highly recommend the US car tool tunnel for anyone doing a T56. Pricey but adds a beefy frame around perimeter and way less time consuming than fabbing. I made a tunnel when I had this trans behind the LA but it wouldn’t clear with this motor

Thanks. I got a 20 gallon summit brand. Not crazy about race car look from trunk side but it’s flush with bottom of bumper and leaves plenty of room on sides for tail pipes. I plan to weld a filler tube to side and connect to factor filler tube

Filled firewall holes. Painted everything to match existing body. I’m happy with the match. Single stage Nason product

Thanks for checking. I renovated and house and built a garage. Just got back on the car a couple months ago. Metal work is finished. Mini tub went slow. I went for the factory slather it on seem sealer look lol Also cut out the spare tire well and made a fuel cell support

Man I wish I was doing burnouts. I’ve been moving and remodeling a house. I’ll be back on the car this fall. Burnouts by spring next year :) Thanks for checking in

Thanks for sharing. I’m always looking for other swap examples but haven’t seen that one. I guess I’ll have to look into porting my supercharger now! lol

Thanks, glad to hear you’re doing the same. Hopefully parts lead times are getting better. Try to order all you can early. I got hung up waiting on a couple

Thanks. I’ve had to accept that’s it’s going to take a long time no matter what. Trying to slow down and enjoy it

used identical CSF racing coolers on each side between the bumper brackets behind the valance. One for oil, one for Aux SC. The factory hellcats have 2 SC coolers. I see most swaps only using a center main but I wanted to try to mimic the factory system as much as possible. These csf coolers...

Yes! Thanks for interest. I don’t post as much as I should Mock up is complete as far as Im going to take it. Plumbed supercharger cooling using -12 nylon AN. Ran lines behind fender and hid as much as possible. I wanted to fabricate the resovior and hide that but ended up using factory...

I’m looking for minimal rust, as original as possible, complete, decent interior. Prefer running/driving but condition of drivetrain or engine type is not important. Slant 6 ok, post car ok, less desirable colors ok I’m in the southeast but I will travel any distance or handle shipping for...

Wow that looks beefy and has a ton of adjustment. I’m about to start the RMS kit install. How’s it feeling on the street?

I wanted to ask the same thing. They look like Wheel Vintiques 17” steel or similar. I’ve been considering those on my demon either black or body color. Haven’t seen many examples
