Hemi Swap into a 2nd Generation Ram

I have been studying you're motor..Check the driver side manifold behind the throttle body.. You have a 3/8 ID hose going there from you're brake booster.. There should be a smaller one beside it.."Maybe behind that one".... It goes to the EVAP PURGE and also where the brake booster is plugged off..It also hooks to the hard line laying on you're passenger valve cover... Mine is hooked up this way.
You have a direct hole in the intake manifold with that line off .. That's the only thing I found that might cause problems other than a crossed wire from the ECM , or a plug wire..
You've done good with this swap , and I feel you're frustration.. get that hose right and try it..Let me know what happens..

so I ran out before work to check the hoses to see if they were correct. turns out I forgot to put them back on after I swapped out my valve springs so now I have to go buy 1 hose hi block them off just to see what would happen if I tried to start with no vacuum leak and there's a pretty big explosion out of the throttle body I'm going to pull the heads off just to be safe I'll make sure everything is torqued down right and adjusted correctly before I try to start it again.

Hook up you're EVAP Purge while you're at it. Not saying it's going to make a load of difference but if the truck runs , you'll have to hook it up any way..I'm so curious to see the difference it makes , I almost took my hoses off this morning just to see if my truck back fires through the carb..
I've got my fingers crossed for you..
