hey everyone! this is all helping alot the list of mods is growing!
as far as the engine being replaced this truck used to have a hemi, it blew at 97k for whatever reason so the magnum was suposeddly cheaper to replace either way all the work that was done was before i bought it, backround checked all the work with reciets down to the block and installation, checked out fine.
i was thinking of doing a bigger cam at some point, but why change to an aluminum plenum? please be patient with me im new to dodges and mods on trucks in generall! and thankyou all again!
also posted a pick of my truck if anyone is interested in seeing!

 

its a plate on the bottom of the intake manifold, Since the whole engine was replaced from hemi to magnum (btw I don't see how its possible for it to be cheaper because a lot more parts would have to be replaced then to just swap the engine. Anyways, if its a new intake manifold don't worry about it now, but eventually the gasket will blow on that cover and cause oil from the lifter valley to be sucked up (due to vacuum pressure and be burnt in the cylinders. There is a aftermarket kit that is often used to replace this part because it is reinforced and stronger then the stock setup.

 

that would be awesome if you could, i would have a nice replacement for the 46re!

 

4.56's, superchips programer and a throttle body spacer would be a nasty combo

 

Welcome dude.

 

Tb spacers are a nice paper weight thats about it.

 

maybe the cheap ones, you get what you pay for

 

you do know the spacers have been dyno proven to do nothing?

 

its impossible for them to do anything on a 5.9 with a kegger intake..... IMPOSSIBLE!
