yes it can, if your up for a lil modifying anything can be done, I plan on dropping a modded 5.7l in when my milage is up and its time for a upgrade, instead of trading it in cause theres a lil money thrown at this one, it'd be a better deal for less money and no payments...

Default engine swaps?

Will a manual trans from a 4.7l bolt up to a 5.7? how much work is it to do a swap like that?

i dont think the manual tranny does but you would have to check on that, its a bit of work new motor mounts and alot of wiring, along with new throttle and wire, no more cable like we have now, but to me itll be worth not having another car payment and being able to keep this truck ive put money blood sweat and time into....

Count me in. whatever number is available. My 04 dodge has an aftermarket exhaust, I am not sure what it is,It came with it when I bought the truck. I also have a all metal cowl hood,it has a 2/4 drop on it but I just bought the daystar leveling kit and shocks, oem front coils and schackle to put it back up to stock. dark tint, aftermarket headunit that i wired for an ipod, a cap, 2x12 audiobahn subs and an amp. and I saved the worst for last it has aftermarket ricer tail lights , which will be replaced with recons when the money rolls in. anyone one here from the San Antonio/Lackland area? that would have advice?
