They make carb'd intakes for new Hemi's so I don't see why not.
You don't see why you can't simply remove a stepper motor from the system because you don't know, or want to know, how EFI and ECUs work. Your answer to everything is a carburetor, and that's not what the OP is trying to do here.
oh boy you again....I know how it all works. I was stating that there are intakes and carbs on the market for this application, if one wants to do away with the drive by wire. I didn't even get into mounts, exhaust, x-member, trans tunnel and all the other mods that will need to be done to install that driveline in an old e-body.
maybe he should read the post about EFI'ing a 5.9 before he tries to tackle this "upgrade" People see these fancy nice cars in magazine and think wow that's cool I should do that. But most have no idea on how expensive and challenging the work will be. That needs to be considered before one spends dime one.
I have researched many articles on any thing that has to do with this swap. I know most of what I am in for, but I have not found any articles that address the D.B.W. issue. Probably because it realy is not an issue, the way it sounds. That being said, I have never attempted any project that even comes close to this magnitude. I feel confident that I can pull it off with the help of all of you brainiacs, [and I mean that in a good way]. I read Moparts Q&A almost every night, and I am impressed with the amount of knowledge that is shared here every day. I just wish that all of you were my neighbors so you could come over and show me, in person, the things that are way over my head when I read them on here.
DRIVE EM, DONT HIDE EM.
