Hello All, well it has been a long 3 months since my old engine got destroyed by P*.*Bys doing a Cam job which ultimately
ended up in me getting a new Re-man 5.7l Hemi Engine. One particular question I had with this new engine is my truck does
not sound exactly like my old engine when it ran good. The engine sounds real loud under the hood but not much exhaust sound
coming from the back that usually you are used to hearing, that sexy room sound.. It sounds like all engine under the hood,
It appears to drive good, however, the Gas mileage isn't as good I think, maybe 50 gallons less a tank, but I'm using 89 octane
now vice 87 with old engine. Any thoughts on this?

No wonder Pep Boys went out of the parts business

I know that Advance bought out PB & a couple of other auto parts stores, here in Cali
