I have a Hemi in my Ram 3500. It’s great when I’m not town. Mileage is terrible when I’m towing near max loads. For that reason as well as long term fuel storage, I wish I had gotten the diesel.

ETA: I’m not educated enough to know if that switch is possible, but that’s what I’d like to do. I guess I’ll be doing another Drive from Kellogg Idaho to Alaska in a year or two.

LSA Motor or LS7, should be a pretty simple swap since my car already comes with a GM 6.2 Liter. But the added displacement or added supercharger would be nice.

... 900 Black Label Supercharged Engine in C7 Stingray

The 900 Black Label Supercharged Engine's heart and soul is the new 4.125 aluminum block. This monster LS7 has a Mast Motorsports engineered camshaft that is custom ground on a Mast Motorsports LS7 cam core. The 427 foundation is a honed and decked LS7 aluminum block with a 4.000" forged Callies Dragonslayer rotating assembly with Mahle pistons that is topped off with Mast Black Label LS3 280 heads and a Whipple 2.9L Supercharger. ARP fasteners are used throughout and Mast pushrods ride on GMPP High RPM hydraulic roller lifters. The 900 Black Label Supercharged Engine is at the top of of a diverse line of Mast Motorsports handbuilt LS7 based Supercharged Crate Engines that are designed for the Hot Rod/Muscle Car market. The 900 Black Label Supercharged Engine engine peaks at the 900 horsepower mark and is one of the most powerful complete fuel injected turnkey crate engines available on the market today.

I would LT5 all of the things. Who doesn’t want a reliable 755 hp with Chevy maintenance costs?

The 1GR-FE 4.0L V-6 in my 05 4Runner is great and lasts forever - love the timing chain instead of a belt - that was one of the more annoying long-term maintenance tasks of Toyotas.

Not sure I'd swap for the 2UZ-FE 4.7L Toyota V-8 of similar vintage. I have experience with it from a previously owned 4Runner. It has legendary reliability, but damn it gets sucky MPG.

With my 70 mile daily round-trip commute, I'm not sure 500,000 mile reliability versus 350,000 mile reliability is worth the MPG tradeoff.

I guess if the swap was really free - I'd go with a Diesel Toys conversion to a Toyota OEM international market diesel from a Hilux (1KD-FTV) with a 5-speed auto. That's a $26,500 conversion. But I'd get 30-35 MPG

Just engine?

What about drivetrain?

Posted: 6/28/2019 11:42:20 PM EST

[#25]

Does it include the drivetrain as well? Like the diff, transmission, etc.?

Probably would leave my truck as-is, but my E46 3 series? I’d probably throw an E39 M5 motor in it. I know it would fit, which is at least half the battle here. Would be fun to have one of the newer engines, since the M5 motor only makes like 400hp. But that would probably be pretty nice in that car, since it’s smaller and lighter than the E39 5 series which was a fantastic car itself.

Maintenance on them isn’t too terrible. I’d probably go with that

I have a 2000 K3500 dually, 6.5L diesel from factory. Definitely going to swap it for a Pratt & Whitney R-2800-65W Double Wasp in this scenario.

What tranny to run a radial engine? Do I need an aftermarket hood?

This. 3.5EB & 10spd in my frontier.

I'd also do the new 7.3 w/ torqueshift in my titan. I'd also want the rear-end off of a F250 to go with it, w/ locking rear diff.

LT1 with MT.

In my ATS. It'd be almost drop in, considering it'd be going into an Alpha platform. Probably still have to relocate a couple components and or fabricate mounts.

I'd have to upgrade the prop shaft, rear gearbox, and axles shafts. With coilovers and some tweaking to get 285/30R18 or 295/30R18 meats on it, I'd be set.

The last 2 things would be a carbon fiber hood and try to strip about 100-200lbs out of the front half of the car, and a Borla cat-back exhaust.

There isn't anything worth swapping into my Mazda 3, so I'll go to my old ae86 Corolla. A bone stock Honda k24 from a TSX with the s2000 transmission would have made the car a beast. Were it not for California smog laws I would have done the f20/f22 when I had the car.

yaaaaaaaa, kinda pondered that route with my 91...i thought (newbishly) that if i sticking a GM motor (ls/lt) in there i may as well just save the hassle and just buy a suburban...i dont offroad enough to be that serious, and my wife doesnt like hte flip in 3rd row seats...safety...

what we NEED to do, is repeal that Chicken Tax Law that was aimed at vW love bus then we could get the foreign trucks witout all the extra taxes (ie, manuf would import them as folks would buy them cause they werent 30% over what the manuf wanted to sell em for)

then, we could get the cool turbo diesels and love it....

My 3/4 ton Yukon XL has a Vortec 6.0L in it. Just replace it with a built engine of the same design, twin charged (turbo feeding a super charger), and E85 conversion.

Or turbo diesel, can't decide.
