    Just found this Hemi swap forum - My Hemi Swap 68

    Correct about the non-Eagle, I actually don't even know what that is. Mine is a 2006 truck crate motor 5.7. If this is about the "Eagle" engine I spoke out of turn, if not educate me. My car is a convertible and I built it as a highway cruiser. It just has to look good and sound good and it does...

    That is the Mopar Performance Crate Motor Intake that came out in the mid 2000's. I wanted the Air Grabber so I had to run a 4150 intake.

    Just found this Hemi swap forum - My Hemi Swap 68

    The timing cover is different. The modern truck has the accessories in the same place as the classic cars. Alt, A/C compressor, power steering pump and the 727 gives you the starter on left side. My 5.7 not only has factory exhaust manifolds, it even has heat shields on it. I have zero conflicts...

    Using the car as a donor makes things more difficult. A truck is much simpler.

    Gen 3 Hemi Swap > Comprehensive Cost and Parts List

    The Valve Covers were $600. I rationalized that it was like an engagement ring I was purchasing for the car.

    Gen 3 Hemi Swap > Comprehensive Cost and Parts List

    I have the Mopar Performance that came on the early 5.7 crate motors. I put the coil packs under the intake and that was before Mod Man had theirs available. EFI's only had one throttle body. If I did it now I would have gone a different route. I did A LOT of custom fabrication for the look and...

    Tuning a 5.7 Hemi with a Carb HELP ***

    I am puzzled as to why you installed a modern motor and vintage fuel system. I have a 5.7 with a mild cam, Hemi 6, convertor, 2.94 gears, 4150 style intake and a bolt on EFI. My desire was a OE looking highway cruiser that is maintenance free. I have used the factory tune and am tickled. It will...

    Used a Milodon on my swap. I used manifolds rather than headers.

    Gen III Hemi crate

    I feel the same way about fake breasts as you do about Gen 3 Hemi's. They shouldn't even call them breasts, but maybe bumpers.

    Upper radiator hose

    I went with the MP intake and designed my own coil mounts. Using Mod Man would have been less work. I call my direction "RetroMod".

    Foot surgery last week has me moving about like a Chevrolet. I will try to get out there in the next couple days.

    Upper radiator hose

    I purchased a "pivot" upper water outlet for a GM and made a neck to fit a factory hose. I added a thick block that spaced it out and cut a recess for the thermostat. Welded it together from the inside and no-one noticed. Made it with a drill press and a band saw. Kind of proud of the results.

    5.7 Hemi into 69 Bee journey...need advice

    I found it to be an extremely affordable option. It cost less that outfitting a fresh BB into a car that was missing the drive-train.
