(Finishing) techningeer's 6.0L (367) Build
 
So I've had to put the transmission conversion project on hold, because the engine needs some work and I can't risk running the engine with a bad bearing. So I'm going to have to pull the transmission so I can pull the engine COMPLETELY.

So I'm gonna tear the motor COMPLETELY apart, every last little bit. It's gonna get new pistons/rings, cam, timing chain, SCT tune, Mopar performance lifters, new bearings (crank, rods, and cam), and new dizzy. The crank will most likely have to be ground. That's the basics summed up there :D. I'll be reusing my heads since they are basically brand new, but I'll have to check the oil pump to be sure it's reusable. I know it's new as well, but I have a hunch it's contributing to the noise. It'll also get better valve springs. More specifics later :D.

Do some math. Stock bore and stroke is 4.00"x3.58" (5.9L 360CID), respectively. That is what the engine is at right now. The pistons I will be using require the engine to be bored out slightly farther, so the engine will then be a 4.04"x3.58" (6.0L 367CID) after that. So my title is accurate :)

Mostly Powerjokes. Cause they have a poor injector design, poor EGR design, poor design in general. I'm not too worried about a 6.0L Magnum. But maybe I should ask, what is it that usually fails on a 6.0L?

I've got HD aftermarket heads. They can handle the slight compression raise.
