5.7 hemi
I bought my 2003 2500 5.7 hemi 2 years ago with 96000 miles. Last June the motor started missing bad and smoking. Found a spark plug in number one cylinder broken. After bore scoping the engine found a mess. So saved my pennies and bought a reman that supposedly took care of the hemi known issues. Guess what. Finished the engine install day before yesterday and this truck runs awesome. Definitely worth the money. Also took the time to rebuild the front end and other stuff. Truck is back and I'm smiling from ear to ear.

Oh well mods are done. Slightly larger cam. Stall converter. Larger throttle body. Exhaust and many other things. When life hands you chicken **** you gotta make chicken salad. I'm a mechanic in the marine industry. I love my truck.
