I may be buying a 2019 Challanger RT auto. Its got a blown motor, hole in the pass side of the block the size of a quarter.
The car has a totally restricted warranty for some reason. I have seen the underside, the car looks good, no damage
so who ever fixed did a good job. I can get a good deal on the car.

My question, when I replace the engine what are some good bolt on mods for the 5.7? Im thinking shorty headers, cat back exhaust
and cold air intake. Is a 6.1 intake worth while? I may put a tune in it after the new motor breaks in. I dont want to go crazy since this will
probably be a fun weekend car and also back and forth to work weather permitting in the summer

As Dave has preached before here- 6.4 top end

Just buy a 6.4 long block and bolt it in.


I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!
