I AM DOING A HEMI SWAP TO MY DODGE RAM W/ A 4.7L. I BOUGHT A HEMI ENGINE W/ PCM AND HARNESS FULLY COMPLETE W/ ACCESSORIES. HAS ANYONE DONE THIS???

 

how much did you pay for the motor and where did you get it?

 

Good luck. I hope you have time on your hands.

 

What are your plans with your wimpy 4.7L? Care to donate it to a good cause? We are looking for 4.7L doner engine to build up and install a 13PSI Whipple charger on. It will be completely torn down and rebuilt with Forged Crank/Rods/Pistons... Not looking to spend a whole lot, we just spent 300bucks on a 4.7L H/O engine yesterday. So if your wanting a few bucks to put towards your HEMI swap we would be happy to take your 4.7L off your hands.

SPEED SAFE, AIR RAM

 

holy crap....can you do this hemi swap with a 04 4.7????

 

SOUNDS LIKE A FUN PROJECT...

 

I PAID 1000 DOLLARS FOR THE ENGINE W/ ALL ACCESSORIES AND PCM W/ WIRING HARNESS. I INSTALLED THE HEMI AND IT FIT RIGHT ON TO MY TRANS. I HAVE TO GET A FUSE BOX AND A DASH HARNESS BECAUSE THE HARNESS IS DIFFERENT FROM AN 03'. IT WASNT TO BAD BUT IT DID TAKE ALOT OF TIME. ALL I NEED NOW IS TO WIRE SOME THINGS UP AND THATS ALL SHE WROTE. I JUST HAD TO HAVE A HEMI AND I DID, IT HAS 15K ON THE MOTOR. I COULD NOT BELIEVE NOBODY HAS EVER ATTEMPTED THIS, I TRIED TO GET SOME HELP FROM EVERYWHERE BUT NO LUCK, I JUST WENT AT IT ALONE.

 

Are you sure the 5.7 balances the same way as the 4.7? you may need a torque converter out of a HEMI trans to make it work right. If you have a wicked vibration when you crank it up, that would be the most likely cause.

 

I DONT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS W/ THE TRANS, IT DOESNT SHAKE OR NONE OF THAT. I AM GOING TO UPGRADE THE TORQUE CONVERTER LATER BUT AS OF TODAY IF RUNS GREAT.

 

Ok, no need to shout, we can all hear ya!
