Default Where Can I Get 3.9L Perfomance Parts

I want to know where to find performance parts such as 4.00" stroke crank, Cam Kits, And all the internal parts. For a 3.9L
Does anyone know of a 5.7 or 6.1 Hemi swap kit for a 92 Dakota?
And will it be Ca smog legal with a new Hemi?

Your best bet is going to be http://www.hughesengines.com/Index/index.php or www.summitracing.com

No swap kits. You can check http://www.engine-swaps.com/ for MAYBE a engine motor mount.

A few Gen 2 has done it. They are the same as ours.

As for passing CA emission laws, I'm not 100% but I'm sure it will pass. The law is usually as long as it is a newer engine and all the emission controls are all included and functioning.

We have more swap links in the FAQ2 in this section.

Some states are PITA's when it comes to going from a 6cyl to an 8cyl on the title and reg. Check your laws to see if there are any hidin fees before you start it. Like some states charge less for older vehicles but will that change with a new engine. Will it change your tax and reg fees every year.
