Meh, dont get me wrong, that is a sick setup, but I will go with the hemi swap.

I have several custom wiring wishes that I am going to implement when I do the swap too, like getting rid of that god awful FCM that our trucks have.

I was seriously looking into the swap. Looking at Richie's build and considering I will have a Novi2000 and a set of 4.7L heads in a bout two weeks I'm going this route. If I didn't have all the stuff I have, the hemi swap would be a better option.

Our NGC PCMs can be tuned to run a Hemi. The NGC is used in Rams also so no big deal. I wish you luck with your build bruno.

What's up everybody.... It sucks that everyone want to do a HEMI swap. I have nothing against the HEMI at all, hell i am a dodge guy. But once you've done as much as I have you get a soft spot for the ol' 4.7.

Richie, great to see you drop in! I will admit I was even thinking about it at one time. The $ and aftermarket support for the Hemi is enormous. I'm certainly going the same direction you did. You Sir have the sickest 4.7l on the planet. I can't wait to see the numbers you put down.
