    4/6 or 2/4.5 drop

    ill be running 26" drag radials and was hoping to get my truck leveled out and not have much of a gap. I will also need some room before it bottoms out cause I plan too hook hard. so right now its either 4/6 with a c-notch or 2/4.5 with tiny bump stops. also does an axle flip cause much wheel...

    Time for a rebuild

    Just ordered a 6.1 crank from inertia motor sports and he is gonna have it polished for me for a little extra. Is there anything else I will need to make a 6.1 crank work in my 5.7 and what do I need to know to get it balanced

    Time for a rebuild

    Well I have ordered diamond 14.2cc dome Pistons that came with total seal rings. Also got Manley h-beam rods. Now just trying to find a good deal on a 6.1 crank that is new or will take standard sized bearings because I've already ordered p series clevite bearings and gaskets and everything else...

    Looking for a set of pistons

    I have an 03 hemi I'm gonna rebuild in a month. I was thinking about killing the heads but that involves shortening pushrods and I'd say valves but not sure. I'd like around 10 to 10.5 compression ratio cause that's probably about what milling the heads .030 would get me and I know now that it...

    Time for a rebuild

    About what would a machine shop charge to do cam bearings, bore and hone, mill the heads, valve seats, and shorten pushrods?

    Time for a rebuild

    Well I'm not sure how much compression milling the heads .30 would add plus adding a little higher compression Pistons(9.7 instead of 9.6) I've already got a custom grind by jay Greene that idles and runs great on a superchips tune. I'm not sure if you would even need tuning at all to bore the...

    Time for a rebuild

    I'd like to get a whole rotating assembly. The only reason I won't to get a crank is so I don't have to worry about needing oversized bearings and I can have everything ready to go when I get home in a month

    Time for a rebuild

    Because I'm willing to spend around 3,000. How hard would it be to swap to an 05 ecu

    Time for a rebuild

    Trying to start ordering parts but don't want to put my truck together and have to much compression or some bull that an 03 with superchips can't handle. So can I do all this or will I need custom tuning? -Mill heads .30 -Bore .20 over -9.7 compression pistons

    Time for a rebuild

    03 ram hemi. Did a compression test and all cylinders were 175-185 except one that was barely getting to 110 and with oil in the cylinder it was 180. Everything like oil pump, valve seals, cam, springs, alternator, water pump, timing set, headers, superchips, gauges, and torque converter are new...

    Need 03 owners input

    So I'm preparing for a rebuild and need to know what I can do before I have to figure out how I'm gonna custom tune it. I think I'm gonna rebuild my engine when I get off the boat in a month so I want to have all the parts ready. I'm looking at Pistons, and crank. New crank just so I know I can...

    May be time for rebuild

    Mine has been perfect till now. It may just be the battery I guess cause it didn't do anything the first two times I turned the key to start it. I'll clean the terminals tomorrow and see if that helps

    May be time for rebuild

    So I got in my truck today and turned the key twice to start it and it didn't do anything. It finally started the third time and shut right back off(was running Rich as hell like in the 10's) then i started it and held it at about 2,000 for a few seconds and it calmed down and ran fine on the...

    Front End Suspension Noise

    Ball joints will make a popping noise over bumps. If you replace them you might as well replace all of them and the tie rod ends. You will most likely need and alignment of you do tie rod ends. You will also need a ball joint press(you can rent one from auto parts stores). It's pretty easy but...

    Do headers make a ticking noise

    Seems like it's coming from around the collector but it's welded to the y-pipe and no leaks so do headers just make a ticking noise. I used mopar gaskets and tightened them up good. Haven't tightened them after a heat cycle or after over 1000 miles haha but I didn't feel any leaks around the...

Well I pull off the road real quick and my damn trucks on fire. I get my Mountain Dew and try to put it out and it didn't work. I...

    New headers and runs lean

    Guess it's where i had reset the computer cause it stayed at 12.6 this time when I went full throttle although when I let out it did max out the gauge again for a couple of seconds but I think that's normal. Still throwing on the power wire mod just invade tomorrow

    anyone use nitro 4.56 gears?

    Yeah I wanted to get them installed today but just drove around for a while to make sure nothing is leaking and everything sounded good. I think one of the headers is leaking though so I guess I need to torque them down again before I head to Tennessee tomorrow. I'll probably get the gears done...

    tricks for installing headers

    Damn man I don't want to jinks myself but I give my truck hell and never had a problem with the tranny. I picked up an extra just in case though. I went with pacesetter coated ones. I've got the same tranny jack and look at it every time I go to pull a tranny but never use it. I guess stick to...
