6.4 BGE or car engine?
Do all 6.4's have that oil filter adapter and what looks like a cooler?

Its out of a 2014 2500 Truck but no BGE markings. I asked on HiPo Ram FB page and was told early BGE were not marked.

Also found info here https://www.forabodiesonly.com/.../2014-truck-6-4.424876/

The only real confusing part is this is a 6.4L block out of a 2014 2500. But I have no BGE casting on it. only info I found is here https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopa...4z3GCTkuG4xolWGPxtivtje30sKOxwJipznxvlu4gk55M

Hopefully @Wild one can shed some light on this for me. I got the better Heads so im not to worried.

Supposedly the real early truck blocks didn't have BGE cast into,but that's only what i've heard.Even if it's not a BGE block,i wouldn't worry about it Ian,even the car blocks are good for 1,000 hp.You've got the good BGE heads with the ribs,and that's what you want,but with upgraded/lighter valves,as the truck valves are heavy as hell,and will need killer springs if you want to reliably rev it over 6300 rpm,which you will with that cam,lol.For the majority of applications the car block is more then sufficient.I'd research those AAD billet lifter trays though,they don't have a great rep from what i've seen of them. Try to track Shane Sextone down on facebook,he just had a 6.4 built for his turbo truck and he's out of Leduc.If you track him down you can tell him you know me.

I think its pretty cool I got the first run of BGE blocks.

Heading out to the shop now to start the disassembly.

I'd seriously consider replacing the valves,as they're heavy as hell in the truck heads,and with that cam you'll want some rpm to make power.Last thing you want will be valve float and pistons and valves getting way to friendly.

Havent started researching that yet. But sounds like a plan.

Well this project is on hold. Spun bearing and crank is toast.

The guy I bought it from has another one and will exchange it for me.
