Hi all , I'm new here , I've got a few questions about a G3 Hemi swap , I,ve had a good read of some of the threads here , i'm starting to get a good idea of whats involved in with the mechanical side of an A-Body swap , the whole engine management part i'm having trouble understanding .
First I'll start with the vehicle , It's an Australian 1977 Valiant . Similar under the sheet metal to a 76 Dart or Duster , exept RHD .
At this stage A stock 6.1 is within my budget , while providing the power level I'm after .
I'm looking at three engines at the moment .
1 : Mopar 6.1 with Plug & Play .
2 : Mopar 6.1 Replacement Engine
3 : 6.1 from a wrecked 08 300c SRT .
I will be using a 904 or 727 T/F , and will not be using P/S or A/C , usage will be drag racing with occasional street use .
I'm handy with a TIG welder and my fabricating skills are OK , but when it comes to computor controlled engines I,m lost .
So first I need to find out which system ( FAST , Hotwire , Hemitronx ) etc might be best for a beginer & and slow learner.
Secondly , which of the above mentioned engines will suit my needs .
Broad questions ! but I gotta start somewhere.
