Default Can I convert my 2005 Dodge Ram1500 to a 5.7 Hemi Engine?
I have a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7 Engine with two dead cylindars. I want to exchange the 4.7 Engine to a Hemi 5.7 Can this be easily done or is it too complicated?

and Here we go again..... yes you can do it but by the time you are done the money and labor you put in to it will not even be close to worth it. Your better off either putting another 4.7 In it or just selling it and buy a truck with a 5.7.
