sup guys new to the club and my oil pump went out on i20 west and i was thinking about putting in a 5.7 engine and tranny and was wondering if it was possible and how hard it would be?

 

Well you have got to give A LOT more info than what you are doing. The way you are saying what you said leads me to believe you do not already have a 5.7

But unfortunately IDK what year truck you have or what engine you have. Engine swaps have been done but usually not cheap or for the faint of heart.

 

ohh yea i have an 03 ram 1500 with a 4.7 i know the trannys are different but was kindive wondering about the wiring harness maybe i should just try to find a wrecked hemi sport or srt 10 that would be nice. bout anyways either way i go its gona cost me some moula to get my truck back going might as well put what i want to in it

 

Trans are physically the same. You'd need the the engine with all accessories, pcm, exhaust manifolds, wiring harness, engine mounts, AC hoses, radiator hoses, throttle, etc. Do a search and you'll find a few threads with some good info.

 

Agreed. T-Muns has it right. There are some guys who have done this swap before. If you want talk to dabig47 over on DT

He just did this swap not too long ago.

You can also try to go through some of his threads

Hey guys

It was either Extreme 4x4, Muscle Car or Trucking on Spike TV a few weeks ago who did a 5.7 swap into something and they got the whole motor with all accessories and computer and all for like $3-3500 do a search. I may do this waaayyyy down the road if I don't do some inturnal mods to my "Brandie". Keep us posted. H-
