How hard would it be to modify the OEM throttle body to be cable driven?





That certainly is an option and I have seen engine dyno shops do this. With option #2 that would be up to the installer of the system. I do have a 5.7 OEM throttle body for sale for $50 if you want to buy it, crack it open and give it a try?




Hot Rod did this about 4 yrs ago with a factory crate engine with factory ECM.
They poped open the cover and mig welded the Dyno throttle to it.
They didnt seem to have any problems but it is Hot Rod.
U have a PM

Chrysler sells their connectors in a pigtail form, currently not just the connector and terminals. This is one reason Painless said they were not interested in doing an factory efi swap.




Thanks for that info. Anybody have a connection at Chrysler I can contact for good prices on the pigtails?

While reading this thread I was wondering if anybody had looked into the megasquirt controller to do the job.
Just a thought.

I've got 2 complete 05 5.7 cores, both with rod knock. I'm just sponging up info to put one together. My plan is to go with a basically stock motor first time around and get the car sorted out then go big later.

It really depends on what level of labor you are willing to put in to the build. If you can handle some basic cylinder head porting do a little bit of research and grab a die grinder and some bits and rolls. You can make the 5.7 heads flow almost as much as stock 6.1's. If you haven't ported heads before then just buy a set of either 6.1's (they may be pricey) or a set of Apache's ($650 last time I checked). I can make some cam recommendations as well depending on your requirements. Order a set of TTI headers, decide if your going carb or fuel injection and finish the build from there.

5.7's are beastly engines!

BTW - I have spare rods, pistons and cranks for sale in the classifieds if you want to use stock rotating parts.

I've got a 5.7 Turbo motor in the works. Will be MegaSquirted...just like my 440 was.

That makes two of us! (and I suspect there are more similar combo's lurking out there )
5.7, 6.1 crank, forged rods and pistons, 6.1 CNC heads, 6.1 intake and a rear mount PT94 running a MS3.

Is yours going into the GTX?
Will it be street driven?...what comp.ratio you go with?

Mine will go into the Dart, strip only with a front mounted 88

Yes, it's going in the GTX. It will be primarily a street driven/street class raced vehicle (like it is now). There is a cool event in the area called "The Flashlight Drags" that we sponsor. They advertise it as "Street racing without the jail time " To be competitive in the "Big Dawg" class you need to be able to run high 8's or low 9's in street trim in the 1/4.

Lets say I want to build a bracket motor out of one of these next year, where can I look at after market rods, pistons, and crank? Does anyone make an aluminum rod for them? Forged crank? Forged blower pistons? Mechanical cam? I run a nostalgia series, and been thinking of running 6-71 blown race motor on E85 with mechanical injection.

All the ads I look at say crank rods and pistons, but, since hardly any specifiy forged, I assume they are cast junk...And not worth my time or money. I don't want a stock replacement time bomb either. Just looking for some links that have more info than your basic BS that I keep reading over and over....And why do I need a reluctor wheel on the crank, I am thinking I don't, but figured I would ask?

I am a dealer for PWR racing engines who specialize in the Gen III Hemi's. I can get you either stock 6.1 forged, Callies, Manley or SCAT cranks as well as rods and pistons. Yes, you can get forced induction pistons or a complete rotating assembly in all the common strokes.
I guess you can make your own crank trigger but why?

In keeping with this thread, found out the Fiat WAS selling a complete 6.4 PRODUCTION HEMI 5037400AA which was superseded by 5037400AF.
Retails for 6237.00 But has a NS5 code attached to it
Man wish I would of known this sooner.Matt

NS5 means "Serviced In Component Parts"



So, production/service doesn't want to sell it.

And that means MP needs to try harder to sell it!
