Walk around video of my 04 Dakota with a Hemi. I share a few different things about the truck and also show some drag racing videos of it.

Have you thought about doing a build breakdown? I would love to hear about a parts list and how much it cost at the time you built the truck.

Now imagine that with a 8spd trans. Nice build, thinking about doing one as well idk if I'll go 5.7 or 6.1.

@brazy8585 Жыл бұрын

im going with the 5.7 in my dakota

@Raulc713 Жыл бұрын

I recommend 5.7 because 6.1 engine doesnt do well in high performance

Get adjustable suspension so you can tighten up the shock rebound that way you stop the bouncing after every shift. That will improve your ET. I'm looking to build a truck just like yours for my channel so I'll keep in touch dude.

Where are you located at I would be willing to pay for help swapping mine also can you use the nv3500hd transmission with this swap I have a nv3500hd that came out of a v8 dakota witch is soppoused to be stronger then a regular nv3500 also I have the posi rear end out of a v8 manual but the truck it’s going into is a v6 5 speed I want to use a older dodge truck 5.7 hemi just like you did

How has the Nv3500 held up over the last year?

Great work! The is the first case where I have seen a Hemi swap into a manual transmission truck. Is this the factory NV3500? Did you have to do any work to it? I have a 4.7L/NV3500 truck. And when the day comes my hope is to Hemi swap it, but it has to be in front of a manual transmission.

@hemiswapracing2994 2 жыл бұрын

Yep fully factory transmission and clutch.

Do you have this swap documented anywhere? I'd like to educate myself with all that is needed to pull this off.

@r.deanmcknight136 Жыл бұрын

So is the hemi a 5.7 with the 6.1 intake or is it strictly the 6.1 hemi? For the rear axle you might want to swap to a 410 gear ratio. I have an 03 Dak Quad I'm in process of doing a hemi build, just haven't made up my mind yet on which hemi and set up to go with.... I've got plenty of time to figure it out just not the money yet lol. Need more vids on this channel

My plan was to get a 5.7 and go through it with a new cam, oil pump, gaskets etc and one day if I found a 6.1 reasonably I will turn that into a 426 and swap it over and reuse that 5.7 somewhere else. That 5.7 would be enough for me at around stock eagle hp numbers 400 hp and say 450 to 500 torque shouldn't be hard with a decent cam and still be plenty drivable like a 4th gen ram. I don't even know what I'd do with a 426 besides break every axle in the truck since its a 4wd lol.

So sweet! I have an 03’ R/T and want to do this so badly. Was it crazy expensive? Thanks!!

I’m doing a 5.7/545RFE into my 08 Wrangler and I’m $13k doing all the work myself. Keeping in mind that 2k was for professionally built harness and correct flashed hemi PCM. Also 2k for custom stainless smog legal header exhaust. So 9k for donor engine/tranny and misc OEM parts and brackets. Would be nice if he has a full build sheet that he could share with everyone.

I’d love to hemi swap w/ 8 speed trans, in my 2001 dodge van,,, unfortunately,, no shop near me will take on a project like this,,,,, as far as your axle wrap problem,, here’s an old school trick, measure the front of your springs from axle to spring mount, get you some exhaust pipe, cut in half. Lengthwise,,, use muffler clamps to fasten pipe to the top of your springs,,, it’ll greatly reduce axle wrap, and not hinder spring function,,, we did this when using “slapped” style traction bars

I have a 2001 ram 1500 that needs more power. How easily would a swap like this be or how hard?

Theres video showing how do the swap from different garages. Holly makes all parts for swap and use existing older transmissions either adapters from Holly. If you do it self and junk yard engine be $5k to $8k depending on engine.
