A new generation Dakota with this engine and a manual would be fun. Maybe a detuned version and an SRT version.

I would think as much as people loved the jeep 4.0L inline 6, that this would sell like hotcakes in the wrangler and gladiator.

Stellantis has paid a huge amount of money in fines for not meeting EPA standards this is why we have this engine

I wish the government would've stayed out of the automotive business. All these regulations & nanny controls that mute the driving experience is also driving the price out of control.

Many a v6 also has balance shafts which commonly run at twice engine RPM, and act as if there was a huge dual mass flywheel attached (Inertia for the loss). V6 = 4 mains, I6 = 7 (Ordinarily, that is). More mains = more crank stability. And I agree with regards to incremental upgrades for fuel efficiency. We've got 0w-16 oil on some cars, high rolling resistance tires, 10 speed transmissions (Which are only a few % more efficient than past 6 speed boxes). We got radiator flaps, start-stop systems, PCM-controlled alternator charging, variable pressure oil pumps, electric fans, electric water pumps and even electric power steering pumps. Some cars ditch the throttle body to reduce pumping losses (BMW Valvetronic for example). Some of this stuff is actually good for us (Windage trays for example) while other stuff is bad. The Hemi is hard to control emissions on, because it is a hemi. Hard to reduce the crevice volume because it's domed. That's also why the hemi really doesn't look like a hemi, and especially the later heads where it really doesn't resemble a hemisphere at all. Then there is the weight, the Hemi is cast iron, and that's an awful lot of weight to be pushing around, and going with an aluminum block is a really easy way to drop weight. It is a shame however that it is a DI-only engine. That was fine in the mid 2000's, but it is well known that DI engines are really problematic because of PCV fumes. All the fancy vortec-style PCV systems in the world don't make it much better than a lazy PCV system without it. And you can take a poorly take care of PFI engine with 200k miles and it will have valves that look better than a meticulously maintained DI engine at 40k. Ford does have that new oil spec SN+ I think, and it specifically is designed to help with DI problems. While I am skeptical it will help, hopefully I'm wrong. In regards to cast pistons, casting now with todays better metallurgy is far better than it was in the 80's where a cast piston was likely a death sentence for a force fed engine. I think the biggest problem with some turbo engines (re: the high strung comments) is that if they run high PSI, then it means they are much more at risk of a sluggish torque curve (Whereas with bigger displacement but smaller boost level will allow more more streetable torque curves).

The 3 big car makers will become the big 2 car makers

Gone are the days when we just listen and accept information. Everyone has an agenda and has to shoe horn their views in, like, "tuning will ruin the warranty, so why would you say that?" Please just keep making these videos, and thank you for being honest.lol. Have a good one man!!!

The sound of the Hemi, in my opinion, is unmatched compared to most other V8’s, however, I’d rather have more power and towing capability than sound. Once the bugs are worked out, I’d be very interested in a Ram with the Hurricane engine.

Keep the Hurricane info coming!

The future is now and we will be forced to adapt. The good news is we can still have our project cars to roll out on Sundays for that old school “fix”.

I am excited about this in line 6. Reason is I have a 1960 Dodge Town panel with a slant 6 four-wheel drive four-speed manual with creeper gear and a factory power winch that comes off the transfer case. Was thinking of turbocharging the slant 6 but if Mopar puts these engines and as many vehicles as we're thinking if I give it some time I'm sure I can find one in a salvage yard and adapt it to fit. See some pretty good horsepower numbers coming from some media. Thanks for the information you have. Appreciate it.

I first found your channel because my Dad was curious about the Hurricane engine, but I've also really enjoyed your videos on all the modern Hemi stuff too. Awesome work and thanks for all this really good info! I really appreciate what you do.

I would love to use this as a crate engine as well!

Really liked your rundown of the hurricane. I hope it's a great motor. We'll just have to wait and see. Thanks for all the great videos. Take care

Always a good informative video

Nice overview on what we may expect with this new engine and why it’s basically being forced into production. It will be interesting to see what kind of power people will be able to get out of these in stock form and crazy power after finding and eliminating weak links!

I think the designers missed the boat by not incorporating a port/direct fuel injection system on the Hurricane engine. Carbon build up in DI engines is a real problem. Periodic cleaning is only treating the symptom and not curing the disease.

Prior to migrating to Dodge from BMW which had a direct injection inline 6s, I will say that the quality of gas makes a huge difference in keeping the fuel system clean and improving the reliability of a direct injection motor. Even though it cost more I always used TopTier fuels and used the octane recommended by the manufacturer.

You killed em bruh keep bringing that heat 🔥

Hi, do you have any opinions on the 8.0 V10 Magnum?

Does anyone have a guess if Fiat/Chrysler or whoever is going to support this Hurricane engine under warranty any better than the Hemi or Pentastar? The Hurricane just screams complexity, i.e., mortgage the house to repair.

Hopefully direct connection will have performance packages for the charger.

IIRC, the Pentastar V6 family of engines were designed to be used in a turbocharged application.

Self-charging hybrids is best. Less reliance on the grid is always the best way to go.

What are the coolant temperature specifications for the hurricane engine?

I have a 2006 300c 5.7 with 230,000 miles on it what kind of oil would you recommend using in it ..thanks

Also true about PC operating systems dont buy the first model (program) wait a year or 2.

Im unaware if its on the 3.0 I6 Hurricane, but i drive a Jeep with the 2.0 I4 Hurricane and it has an air oil seperator to keep the valves from getting gummed up. In my vehicle and many others the Hurricane has been one of the cleanest motors ive ever seen, at least with this amount of power. When the 2.0 first hit the market a lot of Jeep Nerds thought running an oil catch can wouldve helped a lot, but after a whole year of running it they saw they werent catching anything. Bore scope was used to confirm the valves were clean too.

So it’s not the straight 6 that went forever in the wranglers? Bullet proof engine .

I used to drag race snowmobile’s. And the after markets companies always jump to figuring out how to make something faster.

Glad yall like it, yall can keep it

I’d love to swap my 98 ZJ 5.9 with a new twin turbo hurricane. Can you say as a technician if this is possible with limited logistical difficulties?

Our company has 10 new 2500 4x4 trucks being made due for delivery in about 90 days. Do you know if the 2024 models have the new Hurricane engine or will they still have the 6.4l engine?

Stallantis doesn't care about what the Dodge buyers want. With that said, they will loose a bunch of money on this move IMO, that's how these things go. The EPA/GOV has a lot to do with this mess as well.

The Hurricane Six is very underrated in power especially the hi output version. I seen a test of a fully loaded wagoneer with this engine and the curb weight was close to 7 thousand pounds. This jeep ran a 13.50 quarter mile which is close to the supercharged escalades time of 13.20. I believe the Hurricane hi output puts out 600 horsepower.

Is there any R&D for a larger 6cyl say in the 6.0l range for the Ram 2500 &3500? I have owned and worked on the heavy-duty pickups since the 70s and found in most cases the larger displacement gas v8s were much more cost efficient than the diesel. The power to weight vs cost after the cost of diesel exceeded the cost of gas just wasn't there anymore. The manufacture's listed towing capacities were pretty much the same until 2004/2005, but the initial cost had risen from around $1200 to over $9500 for the diesel option plus an extra charge for the heavy-duty transmission. The market could use a 6.0l with 400+ horsepower and 600+ lbft of torque.

Can I engine swap wk2 v6 2014 with ZF75 transmission

One last thing to note, if someone comes out with a direct injection delete setup for the Hurricane. It could end up being the Mopar equivalent to the 2JZ. There is potential here, but I'm not a fan as of yet. Nee to see how the aftermarket support shows up for it, but that is an entirely different conversation.

Hey can you answer me this question please I really appreciate it, What is your honest opinion about? The 3.6 pentastar , ? Do you think it's reliable enough? Or everything I hear about the engine is true, which is that it's a bad angel. Please please let me know

The entire answer that Stellanis wanted with these new engines was they wanted to keep the power like a Hemi motor. Just not the size or the weight the Hemis have. Plus it keeps the fines lower than they would pay for the EPA regulation violations with the Hemi motors in the Charger and Challengers. Okay?

I just want it in the gladiator.

I understand why the direct injection but why not add port like my brz. It has a Toyota dual injection system

I just traded my TRX for a GC 4xe…I’m not missing my TRX. I’ve owned 3 Hellcat powered vehicles but am looking forward to the turbos. Why? The handling of the new Italian inspired chassis makes up for the dated Mercedes platforms with awesome V8s.

I know that video of the challenger drag pack or whatever it's called was pretty underwhelming, it looked pretty soft as a teddy bear on the launch and it sounded super lame. Obviously an inline 6 can sound sick like a built 2Js ect but that thing nope sounded like every other factory stock inline 6, why they would spice it up a little is beyond me. Quite often a first year vehicle can have a bugs but it shouldn't go up for sale with huge issues those should be ironed out before it goes up for sale that's just putting the R&D into the customers hands that's totally unacceptable just another cost cutting measure the customer has to pay for in headaches and inconvenience. My 88 Silverado first year of the GMT 400 line a total new platform and the only issue was grease less ball joints GM replaced them on recall then that thing was rock solid until it was retired with buku miles in the 2000s, my 95 mustang is a 2nd year model but the 94 was identical and a solid reliable vehical ford didn't do anything to them even my grandmother's 86 Taurus wagon had minimal minor issues that was a good car, the new 97 Ford f150 great reliable vehical and another totally new platform so no very few 1st year vehicals of any brand is a giant POS unless it's one of those brands that notoriously manufacturer terribly unreliable cars like BMW or Maserati and lancia.

I like you would chise an I6 over a V6 every day. That being said, I'd really like to aquire a Grand Cherrokee L w/ this Hurricane under the hood. Any idea if there is a way to do this? Jeep website(s) don't have it as an option.

Dodge should come out with like a FJ Cruiser / RamCharger styled vehicle. Have it be the size as the FJ and put that hurricane engine in it. That would put dodge on the map again. Hey i remember in one of the video's you were break dancing. I noticed that cardboard box, 80's break dancing on cardboard. Lol

Dodge should come out with like a FJ Cruiser / RamCharger styled vehicle. Have it be the size of the FJ and put that hurricane engine in it. That would put dodge on the map again.

My only question is longevity and reliability I'll wait and see before I spend my money on this.

Direct injection SUCKS in any form!

You will always have a muted exhaust note with a turbo engine it can’t be avoided

** What's up with the Magnuson supercharger?? ** Gonna miss the hemi, love the rumble of a V8. It'll be interesting to see what the turbo 6 will do. Almost makes you wonder if this is just a filler for a redesign of the hemi.

If this new engine is able to be as strong as the Ford I6 line up from the 60's-90's (240, 260, 300ci) proved to be then I think Chrysler will have something. I may be wrong but I think within a couple of years we'll know for sure.

The pentadtar v6 is a much better design, it does not meet euro standard of 3.0 displacement and it does not have direct injection. Which is a money maker for mechanics ever 20 k to Decarbon the intake valves. But the 3.6 has with turbo made over 400 hp. And 375 lbs torque and run over 350k with no failures on dyno tests in kenosha wi.

This has zero affect on me . I don't buy new cars , I buy cars/trucks after they have 100 - 150 thousand on them ( a lot cheaper ) , I expect " modern " vehicles to go 250 - 300 thousand miles . At my age I'll be dead before I run out of options .

Deleting the comments? Why?

I have the first year 2019 5th gen ram and at 127,000kms it's problem free but I see that the 20s, 22s are more are having more recalls and problems.

Add two more turbos and a supercharger. Na, what's that?

Does the new Hurricane have MDS.

hurricane engine is in balance naturally.

lol brokies are always harping on warrantees

I'd love to have a crate Hurricane to put into my 65' Coronet 500.... I drove a Wagoneer S3 on Saturday and was really impressed.... I think this engine will be the companion to everything else going electric.... I'm guessing we will see them by 2025'.. I know they are working an a system that will charge to 1/4 of it's full distance in only 10 minutes right now.. Depending on how that controls heat or withstands heat, we could see a half charge in less than 20 minutes.. Kind of a "get a burger" fill Up!!

I dont plan on buying another vehicle again in my lifetime although I'm detesting the push for EVs - if you like EVs fine get 1 but if you think yur saving the planet because its electric yur a fool. I'm indifferent about these new hurricane engines.

IMO, comparing exhaust notes between a 6 and an 8 was a silly thing to do in the first place which is why I skipped right past that section of the video when I watched it, sorry. People who are watching your channel are most likely gearheads and SHOULD know that to get any type of decent sound from a 6 or 4 requires a ton of engine & exhaust specialization either at the factory or aftermarket. That's only going to be done for performance models where the manufacturer is purposely TRYING to get a decent note for the target demographic the car is made for, not on a luxury SUV. All the new performance 4 and 6 bangers out there with their pops and rumbles are engineered to make those sounds from the factory. People need to face the facts, those pops & rumble are the replacement sounds for the deep growl and rumble of the 8's, 10's & 12's that are going away. At least the turbocharged and supercharged engines will still make their unique sounds. People need to take that as a win, say their prayers at the tombstones of their preferred big blocks and move on. My dad told me there's no shame in a man to shedding a tear but that it's unacceptable for a man to whine like a bitch. The transition to electrification and small, fuel efficient, engines have revealed a huge number of whiners and it's starting to make me a little sick. Sorry if that comes across like I'm an asshole, I don't "completely" mean it that way but it is getting silly at this point. Eventually they'll create teleporters like in Star Trek and vehicles will be obsolete and completely disappear. Can you picture the crowds of people whining about that instead of being amazed at the advancement? Human beings are annoying. 😂 On another topic, I found it funny that you're talking about these hundred-thousand-dollar Jeep's like they're a product only an alien would purchase. Considering the ridiculous amount of money that motorheads are dropping for their Chargers, Challengers, SRT Durango's & Trackhawks etc. isn't that the same thing? I personally think those customers are just as insane as the people dropping crazy cash on the Grand Wagoneer. Gearheads are paying the same crazy money for performance and the Wagoneer owners are paying that crazy money for the luxury. I'm old enough to have lucked out and purchased my muscle car before people lost their minds and started dropping the same amount of money that you used to mortgage a house for. If I wanted a muscle car today there's no way in hell I would pay what those people are paying. Even if I was loaded.

Oh the engine in the vehicle that nearly no one buys..... no practical working history..... nope not interested.

I heard a viscous rumor that this engine does not have a dip stick to check. I would like to think only BMW is that stupid. BMW engines have been ruined already as the computer mistakenly asks for more oil to be added and no dipstick to double check the oil level, leading to excess oil in the engine. If they have been this stupid it should be easy to fix. And many engines have both GDI and port injection. Any comments. I hope you can reassure me that the engine has a dipstick.

In 2010 I worked at a shop that had a customer drop off a brand new Raptor, with 43 miles that we swapped 4:56 gears into, some $10,000+ wheel and tire combo, and immediately pulled the stock calibration files to send to a fella at SCT to review and see what Ford left on the table, the shop owner was like "you might get denied warranty...." before the owner just burst out laughing......

All these Hemi fanatics sound like old Harley fanatics...🤨

As far as the long term reliability on a turbo engine we have 3.5 ecoboost at work with 350-400 k on them. I know that’s a ford motor but modern turbo engines can last a long time.

This engine has planned obsolescence written all over it. That said, it may be OK for the majority, who keep changing and rotating their vehicles. But those of us who count service life of their vehicles in decades, will find that maintaining and keeping this engine up to date defies economics because of all the intricacies and low service life plastics involved. Then again, who knows if we still have gas stations by then.

V6 hurricane motor sounds like 💩

Stellantis can suck it. Worst company I’ve ever seen. Let’s see if their corporate greed pays off for the consumer some day.

Not high strung ? stuck in the 70s? ok yo yo what will happen if there's a loss in fuel pressure? Do YOU personally know How much pressures the head is going to hold? High pressure pump for direct injection. I see a history of early failed 60psi pumps across all brands and aftermarket. and that's nothing to the kind of pressures DI demands. What have they done to prevent build up on the valves with the 10% ethanol crap fuel. O2 censors are not exactly fool proof so what happens If the computer starts skewing the AFR? My point is this , there is know way of knowing the long terms of this engine yet. Its making power in high RPM coupled with additional forced induction forces transferred to the connecting Rod . That pressure is a big factor on long life of an engine. Heck even a plugged fuel filter could drastically effect AFRs . and those Barra and 2JZs running those hp numbers are constantly cleaned and checked for blockages and failures. How often you think joe average is going to dedicate to that ? And then lets say the computers handle it all . put the motor into limp mode and protect the motor. how does that equate to sitting on the side of the freeway, getting towed and the awesome bill they get for say fuel filter replacement. Or the REAL possibility of the dealer claiming lack of maintenance warranty void. I have reservations on a DI motor , and I resent your comment this is backwards 70s thinking. The motor on it's face has every indicator of a high strung engine.

No one likes change.

AS LONG AS IT ISNT A HEMI.........IF FORD USED THE HEMI AGAIN AND IF G.M. USED IT WHAT WOULD DODGE DO THAT WA THEIR 1 TRICK PONY AND THE TRICK IS OVER AND SO IS DODGE............THIS JOKE JUST GETS WORSE......

The hurricane is a bad engine because of the liquid cooled turbos and direct injection and very expensive to repair won’t buy a ram with that motor. They should keep the hemi as an option. Your not going to give this engine a bad rap you work for dodge fiat.

Are they direct injection or port injected or do they have both

something wrong with his parents to name him sky 🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣

Ya well no, dodge just lost my business. To me no matter how many turbos you hang off the side it still is a six banger. You can make big power with a Briggs and Stratton if you poke enough air into it. Years ago they made cars with three wheels. One could argue that it would cost less to buy new tires however that would not necessarily make it a good thing. I have been a Mopar fan and supporter since the 1960s muscle cars but sadly this 6 banger breaks the camel's back. I put this in the league of putting speakers on the back of an electric car to simulate a muscle car. I can hardly wait for the after market exhaust sound options, maybe it will sound like a hippo grunt, who knows. Suffice it to say that Ford managed to keep it's V8 and for that reason Mustang here we come. Don't mess with a legend, you will never replace the Hemi.

Dodge should come out with like a FJ Cruiser / RamCharger styled vehicle. Have it be the size of the FJ and put that hurricane engine in it. That would put dodge on the map again.
