Hey guys,
I have read alot of misinformation about swapping these motors. I blew a hole in my block and have sorced a few motors, i will be picking one up this weekend.
My truck is a 2007 1500 with a 5.7.
Swap options
-2006 5.7 out of a 1500, bare motor $1200. This is my ideal motor to pick up. My question is do i need to swap over all my sensors onto this motor? And will the 06 motor work with my 07 computer and wiring???
-2005 5.7 out of a 1500, complete motor $1000. I understand this does not have mds. Which i am fine with as i plan to eventually buy a programmer to turn it off anyway. My question is, will my wiring and computer work on this motor? what about my sensors? Lastely, if i swap this in, and leave the mds wires unplugged, will it run ok? Or does it have to be disable to run right?
Please help asap, as i need to make a decision by thursday!
Thanks, guys
