    Bigger oil filter?

    I guess I won't be installing this weekend. Spoke to a dodge tech and he gave me the procedure instructions to remove the left engine mount to get to the dipstick tube. Tough areas and removing the cross member not my cup of tea not to mention I drive truck and don't have a full day to do this...

    Should I stay away from Hemi because if breaking manifold bolts?

    You may possibly be able to take a stock bolt/stud and go to a fastener business and tell them you need it in stainless steel.. you may have to ditch the stock heat shields and just get a bolt. My headers have been on for over two years with the stainless bolts and no probs. I'm in the north...

    Should I stay away from Hemi because if breaking manifold bolts?

    Exactly. I had a broken bolt for awhile, 5k miles. No probs just a leak and sounded like crap. You could run some shorty headers or longtubes with cats to be legal. Just make sure the hardware is stainless steel. I do recommend not using the gaskets that come with the headers and get the OEM...

    Bigger oil filter?

    Getting ready to install today or tomorrow. I will keep posted on the pressure. I had to wait for a new dipstick tube.. My long tubes melted it and it cracked so I need to install the new one so I can see how much oil will be needed. I have 9 qts of RP 5w20 I'm thinking I will only need 7 1/2 to...

    Lifters on backorder

    When my local dealer told me the crank bolt was backordered and didn't have a date I went online to a few diff mopar sites and low and behold I found a mopar dealer that had the crank bolt in texas! Worth a shot.

    TYC or Dorman V6 electric fan

    I went spectra, plug and play on my 13 and no extending the harness. Costed around 120ish. I heard of a few people having probs with the tyc over time, so I decided to try the spectra.

    Bigger oil filter?

    I went with the transdapt kit and had to get a different filter from the stock one because of the threads. So I went bigger.. ALOT bigger! Besides the extra oil in lines and filter helping the temps, filtering more oil, and making my oil changes faster, anyone see a downside to using a bigger...

    Best Performance Mods?

    I didn't feel a power boost with the v6 fan swap. If there was a gain I didn't notice it. I'd recommend a throttle body. Best bang for the buck imo.. and very easy to install. Diablo tuner is very easy to install as well and will wake the truck up.

    If the manifold bolts break, it'll be prime time for headers and stainless hardware! Buy the Hemi and start saving immediately!

    Holley ****** Valve Covers

    Got a two-fer from UPS today.. Valve covers came in and look excellent! They look bulky but definitely will stand out. Thinking about painting my coilpacks. Also, the belltech 2/4 came.. in one box.. heavy as hell tape barely holding the box together. The box says 2 person lift on it.. glad I'm...

    Do I have a problem?

    I have a 6 spd column shift and I get the roll on incline unless I use the parking brake.

    ATI 15% Underdrive Pulley

    When installing the ati hub did anyone use the old bolt to get the hub seated then remove and install the new bolt? Or just zip it on with the new bolt? torque spec for the crank bolt?

    Holley ****** Valve Covers

    399+ free shipping from Summit. I pulled the trigger on them today. There's some real nice covers out there but I'm not willing to spend 1k+ on covers. I may get these powder coated white to match the truck, unsure yet. I'm hoping to free up about 5 rwhp with these covers!

    Holley ****** Valve Covers

    Unfortunately, I'm having lifter troubles. Getting ready for cam upgrade and non mds lifters. I've been getting my list of odds and ends together with new bolts, gaskets, etc. I came across the Holley ****** valve covers and man do they look great! Since the top end is coming out, would like...
