Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Glad it worked for you.

I need a V6 for a 2013 and there are none available used with low mileage and even new is not available as its on a nationwide backorder. I'm sure a newer V6 would work but according to the salvage yards it won't fit but they don't know why.

Much props to you guys for show the naysayers wrong, I’m in the same boat with my 2010 Ram 1500 with 209k and counting, I just developed a p0305 misfire and my check engine light flashes under load. trying to debate on a moped long block (5k+1k core) which I think is absolutely ridiculous for a partial engine when I could probably find a whole engine just as you guys did for that price. Pickup truck prices nowadays are insanely high.

@@seandp85 Mine is still running like a brand new engine after 2 months. No problems at all. i have seen several new engine take outs, some with trannys, for less than 5 Thousand. I guess people with money to burn just buy the truck they want and put in a bigger engine and tranny.

your 2011 exhaust manifold fit on the right side of the 22? I have 2013 and bought a 22 engine. Dealer said my manifold won't fit on the 22 engine

Good luck, let me know how it goes. That left motor mount and differential brace is a bitch...

I'm not sure what is different. Check carefully for differences in intake manifold, throttle body, sensors, exhaust manifolds etc. Good luck

How did your swap work out?

@@PhillipBailey I am guessing they had to swap the harness and ECM as well. I would not attempt swapping from different models. I am pretty sure the vin 8th letter is different from charger to Cherokee. I suppose anything is possible with a welder and butt splices.

Glad it helped you. Won't make that mistake again...

Yes I was quite surprised as well...

@@PhillipBailey do you have any info if the new 3.0 6 in line hurricane will fit on this trucks models too ???! 🤯

@@ulicsc.5103 no clue I'm sorry.

Same with the 5.3. Been the same since the early 2000s. Just updated

Did you ever get the better engine in and did it run?

Yes they cut every electrical connector, hoses and fuel line. At least if they left a couple inches of wire at the connectors they could have been used as service pigtails.

How did it turn out for you?

How is your engine running after the swap?

@@seandp85 Runs great. about 10k KM on it so far with no issues.

I'm not sure it's God's work but thanks

I was told by the supplier that he has done several of these swaps with no problem. The crank sensor itself was different in the plug. Cam and crank reluctors are the same. I was worried though I have to admit. Come to think of it I never did a crank relearn on this. It runs super smooth and nice and quiet. The engine was basically new. I drained out the oil that was left in it and it was clean.

@@PhillipBailey cheers for taken the time to reply.

Thanks for watching. That bracket on the left motor mount to differential and bellhousing is evil. I fought with it quite awhile. I ended up leaving the left motor mount off and removed that bracket entirely to install the engine. Then installed the bracket and mount but it was not easy. Are the plugs you mentioned threaded? If so they are oil gallery plugs. They remove them for cleaning purposes but they usually reinstall them. Good luck.

@@PhillipBailey Yes they are threaded except for the rear cam plug. I am more worried about missing one that may be recessed or not obvious and end up having to redo all this. I think I have them all but I was surprised at how little info was available on them even the dealer didn't know where they all went. I wasn't to happy that the machine shop that removed them didn't reinstall them.

@@WTFFlipSide101 Only the machine shop would typically remove them in order to thoroughly clean the oil galleries. I would speak with them as to their specific locations especially internally in the front and the rear of the block which you don't want to miss. If you have none left over I would expect that you would be ok. So they didn't reinstall the rear cam plug either? That one typically cannot be reused or did they give you new plugs. That's part of their job in my opinion. I'd go see them.

@@PhillipBailey Hello Phillip great video . Do you think a2019-2020 engine would fit in a 2015 . Do you know if Dodge have addressed their cam lifter issues in the 2019-2020 . I wish you were in Oklahoma I would love to use your service . Mine at 200,000 miles the cam has an issue and I am on the fence with just a cam and lifters . You have any thoughts value your opinion in their matter . Thank you

@@timcunningham5925 I honestly can't guarantee the two engines are the same. I would expect the local salvage yard could tell if they are compatible and if not what's is different. 200k miles is quite a lot to invest in just a cam and lifters considering how much labor is involved pulling heads etc. Do you just R and R the heads or do you have them reconditioned while off. If the body of the truck is worth the investment I'd say try to find a low mileage newer engine. AFAIK there were no improvements done internally to address the lifter rollers failing and destroying the xam lobe. They did add an engine oil cooler between the oil filter and block which might help lower oil temps a bit. Be sure to use synthetic oil and change it regularly. I'd say 3 to 5k max between changes especially if the vehicle has short drive cycles ar city speeds. Since the cam lobes and rollers on the lifters are lubed by oil thrown from the crank extended idling reduces lubrication. BTW I took this original engine apart and it had two scuffed pistons. The cam was fine and so were the lifters.

Thanks for the tip.

Glad it worked out for you

@@PhillipBailey started driving it today and its gives me random misfires like crazy i hooked my scan tool to it and it has crankshaft sensor out of sync and cam out of sync it. did you have this problem

@elemuelcrankfield2350 no sir I did not. Did you try doing a crank relearn?

@PhillipBailey its running really rough, and it has to run like 10 minutes, u don't think it will mess up the engine having it run for that long missing?

@elemuelcrankfield2350 is it a random misfire or on a specific cylinder? If you clear the codes how long before they return? What year is your truck? What engine did you put in? What did it come from? What was wrong with the original engine? Did you hear the replacement engine run prior to installing it? Did it run good at first? Good oil pressure?

When you watch the data parameters does it register that it has detonation? Is it trying to retard the timing on one or both banks? Could it be a mechanical problem in the used engine you installed? Did you hear the engine run before you installed it? One other thing you can try is a cam to crank offset relearn with a compatible scan tool. Could it be a loose flywheel or torque converter?

Around 10 hours. That bracket between the left motor mount and front differential is a bitch...

I've just been offered a 13 truck with low mileage and it's done the cam and wrist pin bushes after guys didn't change the oil pump during the first repairs. The kid that owns it's about lost her shirt on it financially owing money and a failed $6000 repair. I've been told early 13 is a 1 year only motor, but haven't looked into it more to find out why. To be honest i'm scared to pay good money for a sharp looking truck and it does it again with a replacement motor, and I'm right where she is now with it.. I'm thinking I'd rather buy another ford and fix it's motor issues instead L.O.L

I ended up swapping the thermostat housings.

ECM doesn't know what year the engine is as long as all sensors match up.

This has no affect on the computer. It does not know the difference. About the only thing that may be required after startup is a crankshaft sensor relearn. I didn't need to do it on this truck though.

As far as I know the engines are the same internally with only minor differences. Is it setting any codes? Seems to me there should be some related codes to the problem. Need more information

That’s weird I did a swap was a 14 and got a 18 engine went in flawless no issues. My guess maybe pcm ?

Sorry just saw this question and as far as I can tell no you cannot I believe the crank sensor reluctor is different...

I was told the engine was from a 19 by the supplier and it was definitely a new engine but maybe it was from an older version truck. I did not compare the tone ring tooth count. If what you are saying is true there should have been a problem with the computer programming but the truck runs great, no problems...

Yeah, it doesn't appear that it will work .

Since several of the sensors are slightly different I would use the original harness to be safe. I'm my case I had no choice since the monkey that removed the engine cut everything...

I'm sorry but I can't confirm that they are a direct swap. A recycle yard would be better equipped to answer that and possibly tell you what might need swapping to make it work.

As long as the 8th character of the vin number is the same it should be fine. Check each sensor connector and exhaust manifolds to be sure they match your 2012. Good luck.

It's not so much the weather but the calcium chloride they put on the highways to melt tge snow and ice. It eats everything...

Allen socket. There is an internal hex inside the threads. I don't remember the size though...14mm possibly

Should be a straight swap but compare all sensor connections and exhaust manifold outlets.

What code is it setting? That would help.

Following let me know if you find what the issue was thanks in advance

I'm afraid I can't answer that. Possibly someone else will or check with a salvage yard as they may know what will fit. Good luck.

2500 and 3500 5.7 trucks do not have (mds) like the auto trans cars and the ram 1500. I "believe" you can use a 5.7 from any 2009/2010 and newer ram 2500/3500. Supossidly in 2013 they changed the crank shaft tone wheel on the hemi's. Both have the same tooth count though. I "believe" you can used the newer engines ,with the slightly different crank tone wheels, in the older 2009-2012 trucks as this video shows, but not the other way around- no older tone wheel in the newer 2013+ vehicles. Hope that helps.

No I didn't on this one but sometimes the dowels in the engine block rust into the transmission bellhousing. Spray them with penetrating fluid. Make sure you've got all the bolts out. If you have another engine already count the bellhousing bolts.

That sucks for sure

My customer just traded this truck in at the dealership and got 20K for the trade. Two years ago they offered him 10k with his Ticking engine.

I would say yes with a few minor parts swaps but I would consult a local used parts supplier and give them the two applications to see it there are any compatability issues. Good luck.

How much miles u hit im at 122k no issues just curious I love this truck 💀 idc if it’s 2012

I would definitely say don't attempt it...

It would be best to ask them what's different. I'm sure it's close but I believe there are a couple different sensor connections. Not sure about the transmission side of it though. Sorry wish I could be more help

@@PhillipBailey no worries I appreciate the response

How is your swap going? Sounds like a blast waiting to happen! 😂👍

I removed the cooler altogether since the original engine did not have it. I'm trying to remember if I swapped thermostat housings or just capped the coolant pipe.

I believe the oil pressure sensor

@@tashafobear7135 the power steering pump mounted to the new engine just fine.

I'm sure the mounts and accessory drive are different as well as the manifolds but honestly am not sure if there are other differences. I'd recommend confirming fitment with a salvage yard first.

I'm also looking to put a challenger motor in a 14 ram have u found anything out all that I have read its the same but still not 100%

I’m doing one right now a 2018 charger 5.7 into a 2013 ram 2500 only problem I’m encountering right now is rabat the torque converter won’t fit because there’s a extra ring in the crank I’ll update when i resolve this problem

What codes are being set? How does it run?

@@PhillipBailey truck runs great just burns a lot of gas. And 3 sensors that say not ready. Drove over 3 months and over 1500 miles and still not ready.

Nothing is impossible but that swap would be beyond most shops and afterwards you would have a Frankenstein that nobody would want to work on. I would not recommend attempting this...

@PhillipBailey sounds good there thankyou. Yes might as well find newer 5.7 same year or rebuild this one

In my case the right exhaust manifold was different, needed to remove the oil cooler and swap the oil filter mount , several sensors were different and engine harness was different. Hope this helps.

@@PhillipBailey Basically just swap sensors from old engine to the new engine that way the wire harness on the truck will work with the new engine

@@PhillipBailey The oil cooler you are referring to is actually an oil heater. I just left the heater housing on and left the hoses off. No problem with oil pressure at all. I did have to swap tstat housing and plug the port using plug from old engine.

Sorry but I have no idea. I'd check with your local salvage yard. They should know what will fit.

I beleive the camshaft etc are different so the car hemi is not a direct swap to the truck hemi. 👍

the replacement engine came out of a new truck so less than 100 miles. still had the original oil and filter on it and it was clean. Exhaust manifolds were not even rusty yet.

@@PhillipBailey That’s incredible. Thanks for replying.

I was told the motor was fron a 19 but I can't confirm that other than it was brand new. There were a few differences such as the right exhaust manifold couple sensors and engine oil cooler but otherwise it was tge same.

I'm near Thunder Bay in Ontario

I wish I could confirm the engine was actually from a 2019. My customer supplied it from a place in southern Ontario. It was definitely new but I can't confirm 100% that it was from a 19. I'll try to find a link to the actual supplier. Some have suggested that the crankshaft reluctor was changed in 2013 which would have been a problem. My number is 807 626 3683 if you want to call me.

Onestopgoatshop.com was the actual supplier.

@randymccoy4967 there are lots of variables to consider but if I was asked I'd say 10 hours with no complications

No they are different.

@@PhillipBailey do you possibly know the newest engine that can go in?

@@bradross7680 no unfortunately I don't. Your local salvage yard should be able to tell what will interchange and what might require swapping to make it work. Aside from that a dodge Forum may be your best resource.

@@PhillipBailey ok thank you

As far as I know the crank sensor tone ring is the same. The sensor itself may be different. The salvage yards know what engines can be swapped. Try calling another salvage yard to be sure.

@@PhillipBailey they told me that their computer is saying that it’s not compatible and isn’t sure what entails in the processor to make it work, then a saw your video and thought that you would have the “know how” to make it work. I’ll do a little more digging before taking the 2014 motor from them.

@@damianmullings8508 well you can't swap the PCM since that will result in a VIN mismatch code and no start due to security. Ask another salvage yard.

Ok thanks for your help

Well that depends on how the rest of the truck is? Rust, steering, suspension and brakes, how many miles on it and what can you find for a low mileage engine. As you can see there are a lot of variables to consider.

@@PhillipBailey body overall is in good condition rotors are going out might need to upgrade suspension control arms etc and very high mileage about 180k I really don’t know what to do with this truck anymore

@dolo5733 can you actually find a low mileage replacement and can you do the swap yourself or do you have to pay shop rates. Might be better to take the money you're considering spending and put it into a newer truck.

I'd say 10 to 12 hours but so much depends on the condition of the used engine and what needs to be transferred. It the used engine has broken exhaust manifold bolts things can get nasty real fast.

Around 100,000 miles if I remember correctly.

Just outside Thunder Bay in Ontario Canada eh

Most likely from a 5th gen, the classic would have been a drop in with no changes in sensors or the exhaust manifold.

Just outside Thunder Bay in Ontario Canada eh

I'm just outside of Thunder Bay in Ontario Canada. What do you mean struggling to get it to turn over? Won't crank or cranks but won't start? What was wrong with the original engine?.

@@PhillipBailey hey brother so today he got it running but now it's saying a few codes one being cylinder 2 misfire . Got an engine from the same place ur client did .. My mechanic says there all new so ots not possible . He's wondering if its wiring . My exhaust sounds off and he says its cause my manifold is for a 2013 and the engine is for a 2021

No I didn't do any.

I believe it was 175,000Klm but it had been making noise for two years. Hemi tick just got louder.

@@PhillipBailey Shoulda just swapped roller lifters, cam and MDS delete if it still was running without major misfire, but a whole new engine is probably cheaper. Let's be honest though without MDS delete, mainly swapping in non-MDS rollers it'll eventually occur again in about 1 in 20 reported engines (5%)

@@ryanpark2049 I took the original engine apart. Cam was fine. Problem was scuffed pistons and cylinder walls. It would have needed boring and oversize pistons.

@@PhillipBailey Don't really hear of that happening, failed rod bearing?

@@ryanpark2049 no scuffed pistons. Possibly lack of service, cold start oil starvation hard to say...

Sorry can't say for sure that will work but I highly doubt it would.

They consider it a liability issue. 2022 will definitely swap with a few items from your old engine

They don't care to have you come back and complain it didn't fit because of a few sensors. The easy way is to say it doesn't and be done with it. They sell these anyway, it's not like they're having a hard time clearing stock.

If you have not found one yet you will definitely want to go with at least a 2016 or better. Supposedly the problems with the lifters were resolved after 2016.

no it was not. Only the engine was changed. Changing the transmission would require complete wiring harness and computer programming modifications...

Thanks for the reply

I stand corrected...

Well it was purchased from a reputable seller.

It had around 180,000 klm or 110k miles. Low mileage used engines are not easy to find.

The major problem with the 2009 to 2016 5.7 Hemi is the lifters do not get the proper oil when idling. I would sit in my 2011 and eat lunch during the summer with the a/c on and destroyed my cam because of it. Do not let your truck idle for long periods. Remove the plastic engine cover and the engine will run cooler. If not in warranty change the oil to 5W30 full synthetic.

@@ellisfrith3795 Thank you for that advice, I will do just that, I'm coming up to 90 thousand on the clock so I am getting ready to do the spark plug change, and I will not put the plastic cover back on, again thank you.

@@PhillipBailey Does MOPAR produce a crate motor that will direct swap in these RAM trucks, mine is a 2011, would rather do a new motor.

@jm1551701 I don't believe that they do, only a long block but last I checked they were on back order. Check with the dealer near you.
