Hemi Swap Info

the differences from mopar to the ls crowd is motivation vs pocket depth along with excepting money spent.

ls guys wont and will not ever spend more money on a harness with a usable one staring them in the face day in day out.

you want a harness, attach all the connectors you need and remove the remaining you dont. that is how ls harnesses get dont quickly. i dont know why the harness seems so trivial to any of you is beyond me. it should take about 8 hours max to do a factory harness for a swap and it look nice and be usable.

the ecu setup is totally different. chevy allows full user control where things can be shut off or on via hptune . that vs mopar perhaps has not allowed it in the past to be able to shut things off or on. i have never figured or even looked into why it is such a big deal. i just counted up the cost of getting the factory harness and ecu vs a stand alone. then added up the cost of paying another to tune vs me doing the tune.


mopar guys. i am sorry but only a few of you have the same brain wave activity as the ls n ferd guys. the mentality is far different and it costs everyone in the end. frugality level is expert for the cheap car owners. even their cars are cheap in every way and it shows by the massive amounts of them. we are wired far differently than those kids. yet we dont have to be but it takes the younger guys to give some effort and just dig in. spread the word and off to the races we go.


great idea on the thread topic. i sure hope it works out for everyone in the end. we need it badly. well others do anyways. im way beyond the stock ecu stuff at this point but most wont be.
