Basically look for any 94-98 12 valve engine from a dodge. Industrial engines can have a low swirl head and some dont respond to the modifications as well as the dodge engines. I wouldnt worry about rebuilding one unless its just completely worn out. You can buy build your own trans kits from ats or sun coast if you feel like you can tackle that yourself.

 

Alright thanks very much. Gonna start shopping for some trucks now. See if I can get this thing rolling

 

Need some quick advice if possible guys. Found a motor for sale and need to know if it's what I need. I understand a lot of it but don't wanna miss something.


What will I have to have after this? Besides conversion stuff? I this missing something?

 

Sounds like its perfect for what your after and you wouldnt have to do any building of a stock engine

 

Thanks for the response. Was fixing to make the 2hr drive to go check it out and the guy texts me and says he sold it to someone else. Wish he had waited on me. Oh well back to shopping

 

Well that blows

 

Let's try this again...




He now wants $5250 for all of this except for the Fass system. Is this a good deal? How will the turbo act? Ok for towing? Only for racing? How about the injector size? Is this missing anything important?

 

Wouldnt tow worth a **** turbo is way too big and injectors are really big for what you are after. Good price though thats a steal for 5250

 

Think I could sell the turbo and get something smaller for around the same price as I sell? Or possibly add one to it and use it in a compound? Talking to him about possibly swapping to smaller injectors too. What size you suggest? Maybe a 5x.014? Around a 150hp?

 

are all these motors from the same person? just odd how many 97 dodge motors your finding
