    2013 5.7 Gen III HEMI timing questions

    My max timing is 26 degrees, pretty much runs much of the rpm range at 22. Picked up 2 tenths. Naturally aspirated Gen 3's don't like or need a lot of timing. If you have a scanner or code reader that shows data stream, plug it into a late model hemi vehicle and note the actual timing while...

    How much did it cost to cost to swap in your hemi?

    This was at least 100 hours from layout to run. I had went from FAST (408) to terminator x (hemi) back to FAST (Hemi). So even with experience , wanting a specific outcome wasn't free timewise (all labor was mine) it was about 100 hours each time.

    How much did it cost to cost to swap in your hemi?

    Carnut and junyardhero are pretty much on par. The cost is truly subjective to your expectations finished. My '68 was already fuel injected (408) and HDK'd, I reused the 727, cooling system and just got the new mounts from Denny. I upgraded the fuel pump and lines from -6 to -8 (which you...

    Radiator hoses for Early Truck 5.7 swap

    They are Summit, The rubber inlet adapter is Spectre. Longevity isn't an issue. I replaced the OE clamps with sturdier pieces (Ideal) as the will strip out. If you are going rubber, the hard part is the lower hose. There are no parts stores here around I can rummage through, so this worked well...

    Radiator hoses for Early Truck 5.7 swap

    I use the same cover with a similar Be Cool radiator (same one I used for the 408). I fabbed my own intake tube and use bendable metal tubing top and bottom. I did have to get a reducer hose for the large water pump inlet.

    A/C and Power Steering Delete on 07' Truck 5.7 HEMI

    Here it is, the only pulley was added to the circled mount. Hope this helps. Also a pic of the cover when I started cutting so you can see where the original p/s mount was.

    A/C and Power Steering Delete on 07' Truck 5.7 HEMI

    ^^^the idler was a factory delete pulley that mounted where the oe pump was^^^ as far as mine goes, I trimmed all the unnecessary casting of the truck cover, including the a/c mounts and p/s mount. the added idler is mounted to the water pump, the truck pump has a bolt stand off cast in it...

    A/C and Power Steering Delete on 07' Truck 5.7 HEMI

    I figured it out out of necessity. I wanted the drivers side water outlet and upper alternator position. Without a/c the belt wouldn't have enough water pump contact. The subsequent belt routing got kinda funky. The answer was already there (casting), just had to figure it out simply, and simple...

    A/C and Power Steering Delete on 07' Truck 5.7 HEMI

    I use truck covers and modify them to use a gm cs130 alternator. I dont use a/c or p/s. I dressed down the right (looking at it) upper bolt boss and installed a factory idle pulley. Its been driven and drag raced with no issues. If your gonna use the stock alt. It shouldn't be an issue

    2015 6.4 Hemi

    I guess you were impressed with the ride:steering:. Once all the install bs is done, its surprising how drama free it is. Oh, Rob I reset the rev limiter to 7200, still pulls

    6.1 no p/steering no a/c pulley

    Kinda' late to this thread, but I did this with a truck cover and stock pulleys plus 1 added. The only difference with mine is that all my builds use cs130 alternators so that mount would be different (not modified). If you don't want to cut up the TC casting, you don't have to. I did for weight...

    Holley Swap Pan Issue

    It is supposed to have a clear view , so maybe that'll fix it

    Check your crankshaft reluctor wheel!

    See @408 swinger posts on defective casting reluctor wheels and the edge of insanity that it created.

    Holley Swap Pan Issue

    Cool, 2000 miles would've shown an issue by now.I used speed huts GPS gauge . No problems with drop out. My antenna (magnetic pod) is on the far right top of my dash. Very discreet.

    Holley Swap Pan Issue

    Beautiful car. Please keep us informed of any issues. Being in the smaller group of "built" GenIII installs we have some different issues. @408 swinger, @Kiddart1 and @turbofreek are a wealth of info. I was going to use the aluminum 6.1 in my build but at the time even Mopar couldn't give me...

    Holley Swap Pan Issue

    here you go,from the pan rail,looks to be 4 1/8". I had just put the car back in the garage from yesterday (show and track time)so it was on the lift. I also measured the pan sump to rack tube.

    Holley Swap Pan Issue

    Im Not sure what measurement you mean, but both pans fit the hdk kframe, Reilly should be the same. It's the pickup tube that prevented the holley pan from slipping in. Holley has a deeper "drop" before the rearward bend preventing the thicker pan from sliding up and In. Btw prefix racing is...

    Holley Swap Pan Issue

    I swapped my non vvt milodon stuff for the holley stuff (I wanted the drop in windage tray and o-ring gasket) . Found out the hard way after pulling the milodon (again) without unbolting anything but the pan , that the holley wouldn't fit back in without raising the engine and lowering the hdk...

    2015 6.4 Hemi

    the bge heads alone are worth the price. I paid $800 for cores. Even if you go with an older bottom end (no VVT) they'll bolt on and rival the "better" ported heads. They require very little clean up (if any).

    Installed measurement needed

    Why would you need that, are you running a 36 tooth wheel?

    Installed measurement needed

    it would suck for sure if I had to take this pan off again just for another poorly manufactured part. I did experience some of this on initial install. Reading the manual it clearly states to use the late model crank sensor but never says to use the old one for non vvt engines. 2 mopar sensors...

    Installed measurement needed

    Thats some good reading there, though it wasn't my issue. My even bank coils shorted and split open. After suffering through the tunnel vision of having the people that need to be choked out to far away, and after changing the coil harness from the ecu , and teaching the Holley rep how on a...

    Installed measurement needed

    You know, it's funny, you would think "they're the guys" when it comes to fueling. when I first started having issues the efi tuner I purchased from praised the system and pretty much told me I screwed up, and after $260 in coil drivers and another $300 in coils I was told I should've known...

    Installed measurement needed

    another update.....engine and systems are in and all fit under the hood with nothing to see in the scoop. Going on the chassis dyno this coming weekend for tuning. This has been WAYYY more work than it should've been. Holley has been a disaster to deal with and had I known then what I've learned...
