I just had to replace my 10 year old TTI headers on my 5.7 swap. The old ones had a small tube that ran the EGR port on the right side head into the closest header tube. I assumed this would still be there, but the new headers leave the EGR port exposed. Anybody else have to deal with this...

If you have removed rockers, you know that installing the exhaust side is not too bad, but you need about 3 pair of hands to get the @##$% intake side installed because of the angle the pushrods sit at. They will often not locate into the cup of the lifter and will instead sit on the bottom...

Had to be modified to work with a Melling oil pump, this mod would probably need to be made for all oil pumps. Finally Gen 3 owners have a way to prime their new build before it goes in the car. https://youtube.com/shorts/rPVHMgKdyO4 https://youtube.com/shorts/RqdfHWKCmLI Under $60 as I...

I have a 5.7 based stroker in my drag car. It started getting very inconsistent. We took the motor apart and the bolt on reluctor wheel had come loose and you could move it 5-10 degrees! New reluctor wheel will be bolted in AND tack welded! If you plan on going over 6500rpm regularly like I...

I have a 70 Duster drag car with a GenIII Hemi in it. The motor sits on a motor plate, there are no motor mounts. I need to drop the pan due to an oil leak. Rather than pull the motor out, I'd like to try dropping the K member, which I've never done before. remember the K member does NOT...

Which of the 2 remote oil filter ports on the side of the block is the send to oil filter and which is the return? Also, what would happen if you got these backwards?? Doesn't the filter have a 1 way valve in it?

Running a little rough, need to experiment with jets and timing. It was 90 degrees and humid here in central Texas: http://youtu.be/HGCE5fwaLCE

Getting closer to having it track ready. Now runs on 8 cylinders (had a pushrod issue) and idles ok once it's warmed up. Still need hood scoop, windshield and new harness. New spool and axles from Moser will be installed in a couple of weeks. http://youtu.be/qp7He1vXYGM

I've been having a hell of a time trying to get my 5.7 stroker in my drag car to idle. This is a new build, and I haven't done anything but start it up and idle it in the shop. Carbureted, open headers and a big cam. Thought the rough idle was due to the cam, but pulled plugs a couple of days...

My 5.7 based stroker is carbureted and I'm using an MSD 6-Hemi controller. I assume the base advance curve is pretty mild and I was wondering if any of you have experimented with the curve and have something you like that doesn't have detonation. Thanks!

Gen3 5.7 hemi in an A body: I have a radiator for a big block that has been rodded out and both inlet and outlet are on the pass. side. Now I need to come up with radiator hoses that will connect to the gen 3 hemi water pump. Does anyone have a resource for figuring out radiator hose part #'s...

For those of you who have done this swap, will a standard dust cover for the small block 727 fit behind the 5.7 hemi, or does it need to be modified? Thanks!

1970 Duster body, 6 cyl k member replaced (supposedly) to run a 440. trying to put in a 5.7 gen III/727 torqueflite combo and I cannot get the motor onto the motor mounts because of no clearance between motor and firewall. Are there any measurements out there to determine if my mounts on the K...

My A-body Duster has manual steering, so I need to run an idler pulley where the pump goes. I bought a Mopar Idler Pulley Bracket (Part#)04593918AA and a plastic pulley that goes on it. They arrived today, installed just fine, but the bracket appears to be too long by about 1/4" so the pulley...

I'm going to try to run the front end of my 5.7 hemi with no A/C, no alternator and no idlers on the passenger side. Just crank, tensioner, water pump and an idler where the power steering pump goes. I need a way to figure out what part number translates to the length of the belt needed. Thanks!

I'm getting close enough to having my Gen III Hemi 5.7 based 414 stroker done to think about getting spark plugs. I've been told to go 3 numbers colder than stock. The motor is 12:1 compression and will run a carburetor on 110 race gas. I don't want to spend the money on Brisk plugs, at least...

Need all of the bolts to attach a 727 torqueflite to a 5.7. How many of what size bolts do I need? Do they need to be the factory bolts? Thanks!

For 5.7 stroker. Does anybody use a torque strap instead of a motor plate for a racing application? I understand that if I go with a motor plate I can't use the stock water pump. Thanks!

Is there someone who is making motor plates for the 5.7/A body combination or do I need to have them fabricated??

Analog Water Temp, Oil pressure gauges. What sending unit did you use on your Gen III hemi to make these gauges work?

Building 5.7 stroker for race car. Want to run a 727 torqueflight behind it, I'm told they will bolt up, but does it have to be a big block or small block 727??
