R/T Dak is not maunal. They only come is 4speed auto. 46re tranny.

and its not wider, it has sways, lsd, wider tires, and lowerd, tuned for more hp (about 5hp i think)(tow tuned), body features, painted bumpers and flares.

Are we talking about the same things here? Im talking about the 98-03 Dakota R/Ts Yes diffrent years had diffrent cpus and restrictions, but as for performance and internals. Its a 5.9l 360 with 250-255hp/345-355torque. with 3.92 gearing. 4speed auto only. 5.2 where 5speeds option. not the 5.9s

Also im sorry i thought you meant the truck was wider, that what it looked like at first...

but your 2nd post? Is that joke or are you being sarcastic? They came with R/T Heads (hence the name r/t), same single cam, and what do you mean intake? They all had the magun air box on the left with a air hat, not like the 4.7s, exhuast? The exhuast manafolds are the same.. some may of had 2 cats instead of one. I think they started that on 02+ (correct me if im wrong) if they had a R/T dakota pushing 300hp stock it would be the most popular out of all the trucks. Stock they run 250-255 some even lover then 250 due to the death flash (keeping the engine from detanation)

but please show me your evidence of a bone factory stock DAKOTAr/t pushing 300 crank 98-03

Then what does R/T Mean on a charger? Cant be rally truck. Lol.. Im just kidding around. Thats what i use to think it ment a long time ago to, and most of my friends.

SVT = Special Vehicle Team
SRT = Special Racing Team
RT = Road and Track
