5.7 HEMI Vs. 408 Stroker

they guy with the orange dart with the 5.7 is now building a srt 6.1 barracuda, there is a topic on it on this board,,he is using all factory componets,,,


i have been researching this for 2 years,,its not a cheap deal,you can get a motor and trans cheaper then the after market electronics,,if you get a donor vehicle that is the cheapest way,maybe not the easiest way,,

arrington engines has a distributor conversion now,which eliminates all the electronics if you use a carb,,but a intake from mopar for a carb is 800 bucks while they last,,mopar built after market parts are drying up,,,

XV seems to have the cheapest kit ,,if its what it says it is,, they use the F.A.S.T. computer,and from what i just read,,unless XV MOTOR SPORTS is pre programming the puter,,it has no start up program in it,,you need a lap top,,and hopefully F.A.S.T has good tech service,,

the mopar plug and play they say is the easiest computer to program,and is pre flashed for a basic start up program,,you stil need a lap top with this conversion also,,


the people to call on this deal is street and performance, some know it as hot rod lane,, he was the first to do a 5.7 and 6.1 conversion,,and a nice guy to talk too
