dakota hemi swap! (srt-8 425hp!)

[DAKOTA SRT-8]

hey guys, i have a 2000 dodge dakota v8 4x4 coupled with a 5 speed tranny, but i recently buy an srt-8 engine that i wan a fit inside of my truck. physicly he will fit for sure (i measure with a real srt-8 and i have more space to move) i call my dealer, and he tell me my tranny fit on a hemi engine (because i wan keep it manual) i know a hemi conversion as been done before but you need a good wire guy... if anybody can help me it will be really appreciate, and don't tell me it will not fit just because your jalous or something like that... because in some weeks i will show you a movie or pics about that for sure anyway or money it will take! just remember i have the complete engine with all wire, the ecms, catalyst, magnaflow exhaust all the radiators so the only thing missing is new engine mount and a good wire guy! if you like performance as much than me, you probably know that it will be a really fun truck to drive with hundreds feets of black marksand a lot of mustangs left behind....

hey man let me know how this turns out im planning the same swap just waiting on funds, i know its more expensive and a pain in the ass but i know a wire guy that can figure it out once i get everyting to do it but unless your truck and motor is here i dont think he'll be able to help you too much

Sounds like a good project, I've got an 06 with the 4.7HO and may do a twin turbo (got a couple of srt4 turbo/manifolds kicking around)
