IMO, if he wants to play using a Ram and not a hemi then he needs to put a really big motor in it and make it an outlaw racer....

He was using a 700r4 with the 408tt setup now it's gonna be a turbo 400/ 427 setup. The 408 was a blow threw carb I don't think he's doing that this time around tho.

It was pretty impressive what it ran for basically being thrown together days prior, there was a ram just like mine on Craigslist a few months back with a 6.0 an 4l80 swap. Didn't know it was becoming a trend to LS swap Rams

The trend is to LS swap everything.

To each is his own. We can't talk trash about them. Their trucks are faster. It's much cheaper, easier and a ton of performance support to build an LS than it is for a Hemi. Better pcm for tuning. Not this s*** we have to deal with now.

That's why we take the road less taken. If it was easy anyone could do it.

Did I just call Ferd and Chebby builders cavemen?:rofl:

You mean slower and more expensive standards. The facts speak for them selves. Here's some good examples. Sorry, I'm just tired of being in a slow expensive to build truck.

You don't buy mopar to play cheap that's for sure. Set it and forget it method Stu. Put stuff on and go. Take the 2003 stuff and put it on the 2005 and be done. Set and forget it will fly. Also make not that truck has spray! It has a trans brake! Those two things alone there can shave over a second in the 1/4 mile. So all in all my truck and that truck are the same speed if you think about it. The one thing that cost us a lot is the trans. If I knew then why I know now would have gone 518 first time around. A stock HEMI engine boosted on spray and a brake with a can and heads and all the little bells and whistles that they won't tell you they actually have will run damn near same times. Chevy is cheaper to build and always will be that's just that but that's not why we bought MOPAR trucks.
