Ordered me a new hemi today!

[diymirage]

Yeah, don't get excited...I wiped a cam on the truck and it took out 2 cylinders

Exactly what I expected to read......

 

[MMissile]

Bummer.

 

[Dartsun]

Lame sorry to hear that. Hopefully it had some miles in it.

Somewhere around 160k, not a whole lot, really

 

[mbaird]

What year ?

 

[diymirage]

What year ?

2017, 5.7 2500

 

[RAT ROD AL]

What's that gonna cost ? Mine has almost 200,000. somethings gotta give !

 

[diymirage]

What's that gonna cost ? Mine has almost 200,000. somethings gotta give !

$6800 with a stock cam, or 7800 with a torqueier cam and a Dyno break in and tune...so $7800.00

 

[RAT ROD AL]

Is that installed ?

 

[diymirage]

Is that installed ?

Yes sir, that is out with the old, in with the new, the diagnostics already done, the hotter cam and valve train, the Dyno and tuning (luckily my PCM is already unlocked)

So, $7800 out the door

 

[mbaird]

Wow ! That’s cheap !

 

[diymirage]

It's more than I would like to spend, but less than I expected

 

[mbaird]

Was that new from dealer or rebuild ? I remember our shop ordering an Acura RSX type s engine around 2005 and it was 12k .

 

[FlamesAreWicked]

That’s really not that bad all things considered.. a def punch in the gut but I would of figured 10k installed or more

It's rebuild, sounds like they won't let me keep the old engine unless I pay a core charge

I'm guessing the TypeS is a bit of a fancier engine then the hemi

 

[Car Nut]

Too bad you can’t install it yourself, I can get you a brand new crate 392 Hemi for that price.

 

[Car Nut]

My mistake it’s on sale for seven grand delivered. You can keep your own Hemi.

Still a decent deal...but I don't want to have to buy a new transmission next month

Wholy crap ! I had no idea you could get an engine that cheap !

 

[Car Nut]

What transmission do you have in your truck?

 

[Car Nut]

357 Hemi is even less, being a direct bolt into your transmission.

Type S is a 4 cyl . It’s the mark up that drives the price up .

It’s a pretty good deal, if you buy a wiring kit with it, which he wouldn’t need you get a 3 year warranty.
