Wow, this whole ownership experience sounds like the exact opposite of fun.

“I need a lot more answers from the folks at Stellantis” Who’s left to ask? Engineers are gone. Factory workers are gone. Even the CEO got fired.

I would ask the tech if he checked the spark plug gaps and the torque on the crank balancer bolt. I would also take it back to the dealer after 500 miles and have them check it out again for any codes, loose bolts, fluid checks. Cut the oil filer open after you change it and look for any metal.

That front facing sump oil pan design is always going to be the fly in the ointment for something that accelerates this hard. I don't think all the oil changes in the universe will change that.

Congrats on getting your baby back

Just think, if you have problems with the new engine, you can reach out to Tim Kuniskis...oh wait!

Without a dry sump oiling system, expect lots of oiling problems when racing...

So happy life is great for you . I’m stuck here in California having to sell my challenger RT just to stay afloat due to inflation.

Racer X few questions you should ask Stellantis: 1) Why do these cars come from the factory with 8 quarts of oil, they are 1 quart overfilled according to the manual. 2) They say to change the oil after every race event. So if you make 5 passes at a race you need to change the oil? What happens if you are driving on the street and doing WOT pulls, do you need to change the oil when you come home. The manual says oil change at 3,000 miles or 6 months whichever comes first. I agree that with E85 the oil should be changed more frequently, however after 5 pulls or so is nonsense. If driving on the street you should be able to run 1,500 miles before doing an oil change. They make a race car for the street yet they are very vague on the details to maintain it. Someone could drive it hard on the street and not go to the racetrack, this is a Gray area when would that person need to change the oil after every outing? 3) Why are the Champion plugs not available, what is the replacement they use, Bosch?

Glad you got it back finally! Enjoy and i hope we get to see more vidz of you in that beast.

Happy you got your car back. Good luck X!

Congrats on getting her back!

Congratulations on getting your Demon 170 back. The smile on your face tells the whole story on how happy you are right now. Hope everything goes well and can't wait to see more videos on the Demon 170.

Congrats on getting the 170 back!

congrats on getting your car back. i know it must feel great! i'm hyped for you racerX!!

Glad you're back in the game bro.

Congrats on getting the Challenger back so quickly!

Congrats Racer X! It will be a great weekend indeed! 😁

Glad you got it back. Keep it clean x

Happy Day, Congratulations on getting the new engine in and it’s ready to roll. Enjoy it.

What to do? Git on that drag strip, of course! :) Good to see you're back in action!

Brother, I was FULLY in the camp of keeping the 170 no matter what the naysayers had to say until Tim Kuniskis bailed. Really doesn't matter if it was his call, Stellantis's, or mutual, he's gone. The number one top dog backing the Demon is out of the picture. Now, I am definitely in the camp that you should go with a Last Call Hellcat before those are gone. I can take my '16 Hellcat to any dealer and they seem to know what to do with it and have stood behind it. I know the Demon is faster but the Hellcat is a car that dealers have seen and will be able to understand and work on. Plus you could do 57 different videos on getting Direct Connection stage work done on that Hellcat.

Good Luck X look forward to seeing you succeed….great vid as always

Congrads, back on the road.

Congrats...hopefully ur all good now...✌️

Glad to see u got it back hope u get lots of miles and races in that thing it’s awesome

Great job!! Best wishes on the new/improved journey: "And....here we go!!!!"😊

Happy for you getting that beast home! When you said you were heading to the track I got excited. I'm betting once you break it in it will be faster than before.

I could hardly wait to see you back on the drag strip X

Do what I did to my 170. Build a better short block and build a dry sump oil system. If not, you’re going to continue eating engines…. Because the 170 short block is SHIT…

Great to see you back in the 170!

Glad you got it back. Excited to see what it will do.

Glad to see you got your 170 back.

Just wanted to say I've been watching your vids for a while and finally subscribed, love all the content super informative and great to watch! I'm not necessarily a muscle car guy either (my toy is a big turbo 2021 VW GTI) but I still enjoy watching and learning, keep it up!

Congratulations to have it back 👍

Glad you got it back looking forward to more videos with it and possibly seeing it next to the plum crazy Challenger

Congratulations on getting that beast back.

Congrats🎉🎉🎉🎉 on getting your demon back sounds awesome 👍👍

Good luck on the new engine

Congrats brother!! Looking forward to some more 🔥 videos

Congratulations on getting back your demon break it in and enjoy

Congrats!

Glad to see you have your car back.

GOOD LUCK HOPE IT GOES WELL

Good to hear hope it works out

What's a break-in just keep sending it, no but serious you are doing it correct, and getting extra instructions from the manufacture is always good idea, hope all goes great with no more problems, great to see you back in the Demon 170.

Happy for you Dude

Man that's one heck of an engine, can't wait to see it back at the track! 👌

Congratulations on being reunited with the 170 ! That break-in period is kinda tough. Maybe take it & the missus on a leisurely weekend trip ro help get through it ? Looking forward to updates and new content !

Get your warranty work done while you can. Before they go bust.

Congrats, happy for you. Can only imagine how you felt when it went bad.

Congrats RacerX! Cheers Brother!🍻

Congrats RacerX!

Good to see the 170 back on the road.

Congrats young man 👍👍👍

I would highly recommend using rosella t6 5w40 as well as I would change the oil before every track day and possibly after as well. We build engines and race them over here at MPR and that's how we keep them running great. Yes break in with 93 as well. E85 won't hurt it while breaking in the 93 will get the piston rings hotter and break in faster

Great to hear , good luck and have 👍👍

Awesome u got it back...

So good to see the engine back and running and I'm sure you're enjoying the heck out of it I am looking forward to getting my 440 back on the road 69 charger after I get my rear seal put back in leaking like r mad

Congrats Brudda!

Congratulations. Now go enjoy it.

Thank you for the video!

Telling people you're heading to the strip for the some WOT passes is hilarious! :) Fingers crossed for your new engine!

congratulations RacerX on getting your car back. Looks like they did a fantastic job. I have a question on the initial start up on my Demon 170 the engine RPM is extremely high. Do you think that could have any type of detrimental effect to the engine specially, being cold on Rod and main bearings, premature engine failure just was wondering if your car does the same great video. Congrats on your new engine.

Good luck to you RacerX. Hope it works out for you. If ever want to sell, im willing to buy it, as ive been wanting one for a long time. But i really hope it works for you because love your channel & and you're just a really honest, cool guy. Would be nice to see a new Z06 vette on channel at some point would be cool 😎

Enjoy the daylights out of that car! Glad you're back!

Nice! Another break in period, Dang

Good to see you got your precious back 👍😁

I enjoy your content keep it up!

Awesome brother, great news. 👍

Love your 170 !

Good luck. I would sell it, no way they are replacing a second engine no matter what happens.

Looks great....you need to change the routing of your oil catch can hose😊

Do not get rid of the 170. All vehicles have growing pains in one form or another. Work through the issues and address them the best way you can. Us viewers will appreciate the content.

Have the oil tested after you race it to see how things are breaking in. Good luck!

This guy is good people

8:21 my exact thoughts were “ this guys about to blow his engine” 😂😂 you got me with that

🎉 congratulations

So happy for you X, now sell it or wrap it in plastic and lets see the next amazing vehicle for the channel😉hoping Dodge takes care of every 170 owner with a similar scenario like they did here!

Perfect questions. I'm very curious about those the answers as well.

This series makes me feel like I own a 170 too

Hi Glad that they replaced your engine. The problem is the oiling system. Under extreme acceleration the oil does not lubricate the entire engine. If you push the car again it will fail. Its a fun car to race around on the street and enjoy the status of a 1000 horsepower. Like top fuel all race cars need tons of maintenance. Oh by the way. Leave on the yellow it will shave off half a second. When I raced my reaction time was 2/10th of a second. Be careful and have fun

Fuel contamination blowby into the crankcase oil? Change oil early and often. Let us know what the oil labs show as you get them.

Break it in and enjoy it X.

Thicker oil sounds like a good idea

Most of the time the problem supercharger. It goes bad, putting all the metal inside. Glad you got it back.

Congrats on the new engine! What to do next? How about a value play? Challenger RT. Or Corvette C4/C5.

Dont let any of the comments saying sell it get to you man i know you got the demon 170 to use it not sell it i have no doubts you will be back at the strip soon if you enjoy the car that's all that matters. Keep up the great content and congrats on getting that beast back.

I’m really surprised they put base model seats these I figured they would have really nice seats like it’s a special car

Good Go race buddy

You have been through so much.. hopefully it'll be good this time

Nice license plate 🏁

I don’t know how a 1000 hp ESS Mustang GT last longer than a factory built race car at the track. Dodge needs to get it together.

Sparkle Hemi , with a metallic paint job , so shiny ? Even the oil sparkles

I think if you spend the day at the track . Then do a oil change . I’m happy your 170 is back . 🇺🇸

Is that black on the roof considered matte black? Looks so good with the red. Just wondering because I have an 04 red mustang and I was thinking about doing something similar.

Nice video RacerX and I am happy for YOU that the new engine will make YOUR summer of 2024 great!!! About the gas, here in Tennessee I got a station selling 93-octane ethanol free that I been putting into my 2021 Dodge Charger R/T Plus. This week I had my Charger in at the local Dodge dealer for an oil change and was talking to the service representative about what gas the engine needs for best performance. He advised me to use a lower grade of gas and NOT use the 93-octane grade as it was not needed. So, you will be putting 93-octane into your Demon 170 as YOUR engine has more HP, but I feel that for my Charger I will still use 93-octane ethanol free for best performance. Can anyone who knows about this issue tell me what grade of gas you can use or should be using for the 5.7-liter hemi engines? Also, I was informed about the security of the Charger to consider having the LoJack system put into the car for the unlikely event that the car gets stolen from me. YOUR Demon 170 will be a magnet for car thieves RacerX and for the price of that car the LoJack should be included along with the monitoring. While at the dealer waiting for my oil change I looked at some newer Chargers and they did NOT excite me as I felt that my current car is better than what they had except for the two cars that had the bigger engine. Is a 6.4 liter engine really need for driving unless you are racing the car at the track? The cost of insurance, cost of taxes must be high for such a car. Good luck with YOUR Demon 170!

I can't recommend selling it enough man lol. But if you happy you happy and i wish you nothing but the best with it

In my mind this is the baddest street car of all time but then again I grew up in late '70s and '80s with Duster 340 high compression, headers, stick shift. Bolt ons you would call it, pretty fast and dependable. Parts were cheap back then too. I'm looking forward to your experiences with the Demon.
