This is the official start of the 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 HEMI truck project in the AutoEdits Garage! This vehicle was originally built by Fred Williams and Frank Allioto for Petersen 4 wheel and off road magazine for the SEMA custom auto show in Las Vegas several years ago. It has custom suspension by Edelbrock that just about fit the 37" Mickey Thompson tires at stock ride height.
There's a Randy Ellis Designs front bumper and Light Force lights. Custom interior by Katzkins and a very unique paint job... yes that is all hand painted details on this Ram.
The truck has been wheeled hard by many magazine editors and then given to the production crews at TEN or The Enthusiast Network to help support the shows on the Motor Trend You Tube channel like Roadkill, Dirt Every Day, Ignition, Roadkill Garage and Head to Head.
Once the engine failed, I was able to buy the truck from the company and had stored it in my driveway for several months until getting the Jasper Engines and Transmissions re-manufactured 5.7 HEMI to swap into this thing.
In this video, I attempt an engine swap on my side yard in the middle of a record Southern California heat wave that saw temperatures at 110 degrees for the entire week!
I picked the Jasper Engines 5.7 because they offer one of the best warranties in the business and have over 75 years of experience. Plus, the more I learned about the company, the more I wanted to support them. Jasper is an employee owned company and offers training programs for young mechanics and employs a many of our military veterans... I dig that so much!
So come along on this journey of breathing new life into this great Dodge truck and start it on it's new adventure.

Never seen something go so smoothly
I know right! My surprise in the video was genuine!
I swear he made this shit look so damn easy n fast
Meanwhile I'm on month four of how to remans swap my wk2 grand cherokee. Don't get me wrong tho on the ram the job is super easy with plenty of space, on a jeep however, well you know you own a jeep when no matter what work you do to it you end up with bloody knuckles (and not from punching the damn thing either)
Saw your video and read all the comments. Some of them were 5 years old and I'm sure a refurbished Jasped engine would be more expensive now. We swapped engines back in the 70ties under a shade tree with a come-along. Didn't seem so complicated way back when. I'm older and have just been paying garages to put in new engines. Got a 5.3 from Jasper installed for 6k a few years back. It came with a 30k mile warranty. My 2019 Ram has 30k. I know warranties are usually a waste but I keep them with all the technology. Really cool how you kept all your bolts in a systematic order. I've actually videotaped smaller projects to help me remember. Hate to get through an have extra bolts with no idea where they came from. Excellent video.
A big thank you for making this video!!! As a first timer for this, it really helps. I am currently in the beginning steps of swapping my hemi out in a 2011 ram 1500 and keep back tracking to this video to see what you would do. 3 years old and still helpful and love seeing your current upgrades as well.
I just finished my 5.7 install on my 2011 Ram Outdoorsman ,my old engine gave me a 195 thousand miles on it , I understand that feeling, mine runs great and I am so damn proud of it , Love my truck....to be honest I watched this video about three times before I started mine , great job THANKS....
Hey Mark do you have any pro tips? I'm building a 392 stroker to go in my truck. 2009 with a Procharger, it has 200k Km on it now and I think the lifters are starting to go. Going to do the swap this summer!
Leon W that is what I was thinking of doing. A 5.7 to a 392 stroker. I am with you, do you have any tips since you posted 2 months ago?
@@chadrose I've shopped around and been in contact with Manley and Scat. Manley looks nice but is too many Canadian pesos. The Scat kit is my pick, since I'm going to run around 12 PSI so they recommend -22 Wiseco pistons (roughly 9.3:1). My power goal of 750 hp @ the crank is near the I-beam rods 800 hp limit so I am getting the ARP 2000 7/16" upgrade (it's only $100 extra). It would be cool to make more ponies but my 545rfe won't take it, I have the best one on the market- the ATS with a Co-Pilot and Edge 2800 converter but still the trans is the limiting factor. I got all my other parts from Rock Auto, best prices for sure. I'd recommend New Hemi Engines 2003-Present: How to Rebuild by Larry Shepard. I bought an engine with a Comp 266 (a bit small still but oh well), Hellcat lifters, Arrington pushrods and TTI shorty headers already done to it and am rebuilding that one, will swap over when I am done.
A solo engine swap. Pretty bad ass man. I just subscribed
Thanks so much! Glad to have your support! Welcome
I thought I was cool doing a Miata swap on my own years ago, but this is something else entirely!
Plot Twist: the whole video is scripted and he had others helping him.
I do them all the time.
Mini 🤔😅
Dude I wish I had your skills. You’re like an old school mechanic - you repair instead of replace. Hats off to you sir. Respect. We need this mentality in today’s disposable economy.
Did a Jasper motor,V-10, on my old 2003 Ford Excursion and it was amazing how they,Jasper, would take the initiative and re-engineer the small issues that Ford never bothered to change and improve.$8,500.00 well spent thank you Jasper!
Did you twin turbo it?
Just kidding.
8500 for a rebuild 🤣. Thats crazy money because everything in that engine is used. All engine rebuilders reuse everything they can. Block, heads, cams, lifters, rods, pistons, valves. I was told by a rep of a company they even reuse timing system components such as the tensioner and sprockets. Everything is reused. Thats why you have to give them a good core in return.
You can rebuild the engine yourself for a few hundred dollars doing it their way. People think they're getting all new stuff and thats not the case
@@blue03r6 F*ck that!!! I don't know what I'm going to do with my 2008 6.8 Triton... looks like it's leaking oil from the front crank seal or pan gasket... but I was thinking at 343,000 miles....... it might be time for a motor swap but now I'm confused hearing all the Dirt on these engine remanufacturers!!
There are never enough AutoEdit videos to watch. Keep up the awesome work!!!
You are the best, thank you!
This cannot be said enough!! Jason, your videos are fun to watch, whilst educational! Keep it up man!!!
A fram oil filter found the first problem.
He should look at who makes his air intake... then go buy one of their oil filters..lol
Come on man, Stock exhaust manifolds on this beauty?
Awesome job. One of THE BEST engine swap video's on RUclips. Thank you well done.
THUMBS UP for everybody who was really feeling his excitement !
I really was!
@@AutoEdits Question: Would a 5th gen dodge ram 1500(390hp) 5.7L engine possibly bolt directly on to the stock 3rd gen ram 1500(345hp) 5.7L transmission and be drive ready?
Yuuuup
Awesome video and that's a beastly truck! Its really cool seeing someone else do a jasper swap, I put a jasper 5.9L v8 in my 2001 1500 and I absolutely love it. 80,000 miles later it's still running like it did when it was brand new.
Great to hear a success story like that... I'm feeling pretty good about it so far.
Thanks so much!
I got 240,000 miles on my 01 truck with 5.9 also..i wouldnt mind buyin a Jasper because I've installed them in peoples vehicles before. But i really would rather send mine to Jasper instead cause i know how well its been takin care of all this time too and i bet it would be an easy rebuild..and I'd still have orig eng too..and trans..rt now i havent had any issues with mine until i put cold air intake on it..now ck eng light keeps coming on..
I have a 2001 4x4 1500 as well I want to do this so bad lol.
how is it now?? About to get one myself but im not sure! Mechanic called me today, my engine is shot.
Dam!! there is nothing like the sound of a Hemi!!
Yes, it's pretty good. Stay tuned... as good as it sounds... I'm about to rip the entire exhaust off of this thing and swap it for ...oops almost ruined the surprise!
Especially when they break down like this one did Hahaha
I'm with you man ,hemi simply the best, proud owner of rams since 2001
The best kind of music to my ears when you fired it up!! Love that that sound man!!!
I was surprised and happy!!! Thanks!
Hey man like I said on the last video, happy to see you back! I know it must be hard to film for us when you film all the time. So thank you for the time makes my day!
Really, thanks so much! Means a bunch to hear that!
I'm glad you bought it and gave it a new life ! Them 5.7 hemi's are fun to drive and the sound is like no other. Great video !
+Steven Munoz That's so true! Part of why I like it so much. Thanks for watching and saying hey!
Did someone say HEMI?
You should do More engine upgrades so us other ram owners can see what to get lol
Count on it!!!
You can use mine as a FREE test subject in a few year.
+Marc Turcot Haha! Of course!
I agree, this video was very well done. Its slowpaced but I like that. Things take time in the real world and I don't mind the video actually reflecting that. Impatient or busy people have the FFWD button for a reason :)
Jayden Duquett
Reminds me of my first swap at 17 years old on my 97 f150 5.4l was a hassle but now she runs like a dream. Very inspiring video btw!
Thanks!
Cute story.
If i was your neighbor, I'd always be down to lend a hand.
That's super cool!
Was thinking that too.. My neighbors are lame.
Ditto
Shyt if i was his neighbor i do everything😂 and led him watch!
@@gol10dr45 some people have back issues and can't do that. but if you tell the person you have offered to help that you have back issues but would still like to help, they generally would have you doing smaller chores but you would be able to still help in a MAJOR, MAJOR way.
I can't believe that I am just finding your channel but I'm glad I did
Well I'm glad you did as well... Welcome and thanks!
Dodge makes a pretty good vehicle more so than what people may believe. Do your maintenance on time and you'll be happy
Dirt Everyday is awesome! The only reason I pay for the Motor Trend subscription.
I LOVE JASPER PRODUCTS. I used them to put a 6.0L Vortec Max Motor in my 03 gmc stepside i had, then ended up buying their built 4L60E trans for it later on. AMAZING COMPANY
Glad to hear another success story! I'm very happy so far.
GREAT VIDEO! I work for JASPER Engines. I put a JASPER transmission in my old 97 Z71....I love that old truck! I don't think the engine will be lasting much longer so I will be putting a JASPER engine in it too!
Awesome! I'm really happy to be a supporter of Jasper... one of the best companies I've used so far! Good luck on your project!!!
I know an older couple who had a jasper reman trans put in a 98 jimmy 4x4, the trans didn't last 10k miles. While jasper did send another trans, they had to pay another $150-$200 to have it put in at the same mechanic shop. I have the jimmy now and has about 3k on the replacement trans. We'll see how long it last before it fails.
Empire of Dirt I’d like to know what you did to get 300hp from a 318? No stock 318 with a 4 barrrel ever came close to 300hp.
I love Dirt Every Day!!! Thank you for all the entertainment. 4WD MAG FOR LIFE!!!
Yeah buddy!
Very nice man! Great video enjoyed watching you taking it apart and installing this new engine! Sounded real good through my surround sound when you turned it on for the first time!
Great job! And thank goodness finally for some cooler weather here in Socal!! 😉👍
Thank you! I know, that was a hot stretch... now for some cooler weather to go on an adventure in!
I use to work there haha seen this video and was like I gotta watch it lol. I use to work at the plant in jasper Indiana. Just a 20 minute drive from home. It was actually my first job. I was in the diesel department. Joined the army and I get out of the army next year and I'll be going back to jasper engines. Great place to work and a friendly environment. I hope that engine does you well brother. I really do!
Really great to hear that from you first hand! Thanks so much for your service and I hope you do end up back at Jasper... they are good people!
Superb job! I just pulled the engine out of my JGCH 5.2 and I had two friends helping me with that... Can't imagine doing it myself... Big thumbs up!
I wanted to show a direct replacement. Putting headers on would mean modifying the rest of the exhaust and here in California where I live... that's a huge headache. It sees pretty happy... Check out the video when I put the Flowmaster Outlaw exhaust on this thing... it sounds Awesome!!! ruclips.net/video/wDrTm2k-i8c/видео.html
I understand... When my Doug Thorley headers arrived, I was surprised to see, that one of the pipes with the flange that goes right between the headers and the cat was 2,5" in diameter... But my entire exhaust system is 3"... I asked them if they made a mistake and they replied they need to put in 2,5" pipe in order to pass the California emissions...
Never seen an ad look so good,other than old beer ads with beer babes.
Oh man... next time I'm sweating balls on my side yard wrenching and a whole crew of beer babes shows up to help... now we're talkin!!!
Another great video, my favorite channel for sure! I love working on my projects by myself too "yeah I know Pinto was a help too," and I would definitely tackle a project like this too! Take my time just like you did, and take in the entire process!
Exactly! Great to hear from you!
The flat tackle boxes from Walmart or academy work well for keeping track of bolts and other small components. I use them and masking tape to label where stuff case from or what it held on.
Good tip.
Re upload from yesterday? I watched the whole bit yesterday. Thanks for sharing! Neat to see that Jasper doesn't just do a regular old refresh but actually addresses the shortcomings
Agreed! Thanks for watching... it's much appreciated.
I can't believe you did this by yourself with no problems along the way!! I helped a buddy with his swap and the engine wouldn't turn over, then we had multiple engine codes...
Glad to see this truck up and running!
I thought so too!
Cant wait to see what you do with it!
I hate how easy you made this look haha... good shit man
HAHA! It wasn't that easy but I did get lucky on a few parts... Thanks so much!
autoedit it looks good non the less.... I got the notifications turned on man, can’t wait to see what else you do man
Really awesome video!!! No comments required, it's one of the best videos I've ever seen
That was awesome to watch! I solo swapped a V8 Magnum for a Cummins 12 valve in a 96 Dodge Ram 3500 4 wheel drive cab and Chassis with a 5-speed. It's been a great work horse.
Hell YEAH !!!! Man i am a lot less intimidated to try something like that with an old project vehicle.
Awesome to hear... go for it!
I'd give Jasper a try. I used to talk with one of their sale associates who would come into our shop in California. Really cool guy. I told him I had actually driven by the Jasper Engine facility in Indiana several years ago. Being that it's in the middle of no where, he thought that was pretty cool. Anyway, your Jasper rebuilt Hemi sounds great!
love this video I have 2014 ram and watching your videos give me great ideas and teaches people who watches it.
I loved this comment! Thanks!
@@AutoEdits your walcome man keep the videos coming there aswome to watch.me and girlfriend have seen your camping videos with the jeep and she loves camping. we never new that u could have a tent set up on the top of a jeep.seen one at a car show once but thought nothing of it.
Great video man. Your editing, lighting, sound, and contant is great. I love all the great camera angles and high res. Very interesting video.
Thanks so much, I really appreciate you watching and taking a moment to leave such an encouraging comment!
I've been watching your channel for long long time and i love your videos I know you might not read my comment but I love ur videos have a great day!
I try to read ALL of the comments because I really appreciate every single person that takes the time to watch the content I work so hard at creating here... SO, THANK YOU VERY MUCH for watching and commenting! You have a great day as well my friend.
Best review on RUclips . And nice truck and jasper engine .. thanks
Thanks so much!
About to put 37s on my 2017 1500, love seeing these videos. More of the truck please
For sure!
Getting a Jasper 5.7 for my 2013 Trailhawk. I can't wait! Thanks for the video!
Engine is still running strong all these years and many adventures later!
@@AutoEdits How many miles do you have on it?
Great work resuscitating this beast. God I love that bumper!
Thank you! Yes, that bumper is the main bit of character to this truck!
Glad you got it going!!
Thanks, me too!!!
I purchased the transmission from an authorized Jasper dealer summer of 2017 in Yorktown, VA. The original transmission was slipping in reverse after 87k miles. I paid 5800 for Jasper replacement. This transmission was an upgrade to the standard. The authorized dealer completely flushed the cooler and replaced all the transmission lines because the original lines did not connect to new transmission. The transmission seem to do fine. The transmission failed at 89k while towing a 5000 lb trailer with the Dodge 2500 diesel. The transmission blew a seal and all the fluid was pumped out unknown while traveling at highway speed. The noise was the clue that something was very wrong. Pulled into a Food Lion parking lot and then noticed my trailer was covered in transmission fluid. I contacted Jasper. I was told they would reimburse 70 / hr labor rate, which would not cover the Dodge dealer ship labor rate. I was 6 hours from home with a two-year-old Airstream covered in transmission fluid. Jasper hinted the failure was probably due to a bad cooler or plugged ATX lines. The reasoning was unacceptable considering the work was performed by authorized Jasper installer who told me they flushed the cooler and replaced all ATX lines. The original receipt had the new lines and the cooler flush annotated. Jasper could not give me a time to repair and told me the old ATX one had to be shipped back before they could honor the repairs. With my wife in tears, I elected to trade in a nice truck to purchase a new. The way Jasper handles the warranty left me sick to my stomach and out $5800 for a 6-7 month old Jasper re-manufactured transmission with less than 2000 miles. The transmission should have never leaked fluid the way it did assuming all seals were replaced with new. I suspect the replacement parts used were not of original quality, which lead to the premature failure. At a minimum Jasper should honor some type of refund. The warranty could of been handled differently. They essentially leave you hanging and provide you with no information on how long it will take or what action you need to do to restore vehicle operation. We were left stranded. After spending 5800 dollars on this very bad deal I could not in good conscious spend more money on hotel, restaurants, and higher cost for dodge to perform the work. Jasper provided no information on how long it would take to ship and receive a replacement transmission.
I really hate to hear a story like that and feel awful for anyone having to go through such an ordeal. Don't blame you one bit for feeling like this.
Thanks for making this video. You have encouraged me to do it to. I just pulled my motor out of my 2011 Power Wagon today and will be moving over parts to my new Jasper 5.7 hemi tomorrow. I hope mine slides back in with as little fuss as yours did. It has been a ton of work so far just getting it out. Hope I get it all back together and working in the next few days. Thanks.
I hope it does as well!
Got it in and running. Motor sounds great. Thanks again for the video.
Dude I love all your videos
Dude, I love that you watch them and say hey!
Employee owned companies are #WINNING
Agreed, and this is a good one at that!
Nice ROADKILL shirt! Finn and Fry would be proud!
This is like one of the coolest videos I ever watch the sad part is you made the motor swap look so easy I wish I could do it your truck looks bad ass love it
Great videos and great channel, keep the videos coming. 😎👍🌵
Thanks so much... Welcome!
At about 1:20, MazdaRati?
Looks like it. Yep, the RoadKill boys
ROCK!
steve
Very professionally made for the amount of subscribers you have. Dedication! I loved it!
Thanks so much, I appreciate the view and the comment!
Swapped out a few hemis in the rams. Pretty smooth job . Very good trucks
I BET JASPER JUST LOVES LOVES LOVES DODGE WITH ALL THE HEMI CAM AND LIFTER FAILURES
i had a 08 ram with the hemi i never had any problems with it.. is the problem mainly with the 09 and newer hemi? i like to know more...
@@terrysansom6054 mainly 09-11 as far as I know.
Probably cheaper to just replace cam/lifters. Basically the roller lifter needle bearings are going out at fairly low miles (first cases as far as I know were in 2016) and the lifter roller was eating the cam lobe. Ticking sound (not like the exhaust manifold leak they're famous for), then misfire code due to teh cam getting eaten, then she's fucked.
Honestly I can't believe people didn't see the signs when they changed oil. Should be a bunch of metal in the pan, but who knows.
Seems to be issues with mds 5.7’s and a few showing up without mds. Much wider range than just 09-11’s. Someone posted their ‘15 had the same issue.
and the 5.4 triton
No mention of whether the Jasper engine has an upgrade to solve the camshaft/lifter lube problem.
it's impossible to not subscribe to this
You're the best!
you are awesome dude, keep it up!, now im going to see the whole mustang project.
I have an 09 1500 hemi quadcab, been in the shop 4 times for manifold bolts, right manifold already replaced to warping. Glad the 09 has the lifetime Powertrain warranty 👏. It’s in the shop right now for the left side manifold.
Didn’t even try but now your vehicles and mine match! 07 Black JKU, and 14 Ram 1500 QC 5.7 Hemi. Love this pair of rigs!
That's so cool! Good taste my friend!
Tim Graham I have a black 16 rubicon hard rock and a red 16 ram 1500 big horn. Now we just need stangs
wow that is a sweet truck.. how does that ifs system hold up with those 37s on?
Thanks! The IFS has been really good... I broke a half shaft once in Anza Borrego a few years back climbing some rocks (and that break was mostly driver error) but it makes the truck so nice to drive. I'm very happy.
I put a jasper transmission in a 2001 dodge Dakota years ago. Worked perfect.
I've been very happy with this install!
sounds like Jasper is the way to go.... unfortunately if it has to be shipped from Germany thats a downer. Does Jasper perhaps have a dist. warehouse in the USA?
@@harpoon_bakery162 jasper engines is based in jasper indiana. They have distributors all across the United states.
I'm glad to see the truck is still alive, I drove it back and forth across the country a few times, hit a mule deer at 80 MPH with it in the middle of nowhere somewhere on highway 50 in Nevada, slept in it more nights than I would liked to have, and accidentally bumped into a pole--sorry about that! Have fun with it.
That seems to be the theme for this truck in its past life... from Fred to Pewe and you and the video crews (including me) this truck has survived more than most... lol
Love my Jasper engine, saved my beloved truck.
Good to hear!
Great video!! Loved to see what Jasper did to improve the bottom end. What about the top end? This is where all the nightmares come with the GEN 3 Hemis. Did Jasper fix the valve seat issue in the heads and the junk roller lifters that always fail and chew up the cams?
This particular year didn't have the valve seat problem but they did fix all that other stuff!
So as it has now been a year sence the swap could you possibly do a one year review, how many miles you have placed on it and how it "hauls". Thank you and love your vids
I can do a quick one right here. There are about 15,000 miles on it and has been flawless. Towed with it several times with good power and I'm about to do another oil change and I'm curious to see what it looks like with some real wear and tear on it. No leaks and the paint on the block still looks good as well. Overall I am very happy with the install. Hope that helps.
@@AutoEdits that helps a lot!
Nice job tackling that on your own. I’m not a hemi guy but wrenching is wrenching. I subscribed.
You made that look really easy. Great job!
👍🏾💯I'm a proud owner of a 5.0 96eb rebuilt jasper engine! Runs better then before!
F1-50
Awesome! I'm glad to be in the club
having done this swap on my 2014 just like you did, on the ground, i will say taking the front clip off is the way to go, be glad yours wasnt a 8spd trans, theres a rats nest of coolant lines ya gotta deal with
Hell yeah! Im almost as excited for this truck as you are.
WooHoo! Glad to hear it... This thing is pretty awesome!
Great video. Thanks for the input on jasper engines. I have a 02' 4wd expedition with the 2v 5.4. Been a great vehicle. Spark plug came out of head and at first thought it just blew out but the top of the piston has some marks so I'm not sure without the head coming off if the piston hit the spark plug and pushed it out. The spark plug was damaged. I've been looking at jasper engines for a replacement since then if I can't repair this engine. 240,000 miles on the original so may be better to just get a new one. Thanks for taking the time to make the video and always having a great attitude. From south Texas.
Howdy and thanks for watching! I had a F150 with a 2v 5.4 and the spark plugs coming out is a fairly common occurrence. It's not likely the piston touched the plug... the heads just "let go" of the plugs and require a heli-coil. I pulled my plugs and just made sure they all had anti seize on them and were not too tight.
If you do decide to get an engine... do some research on the Jasper unit. They are such a great company that I'm proud to support them and the more you know you would too! Have a great one!
Well, I see what killed it, there was a Fram filter stuck to the bottom of it.
You are not the first comment to mention that... I had no idea that was an engine killer.
@@AutoEdits Of course it's not, but they are the cheaper of the options. K&N, Mobile 1, Donaldson, Amsoil, are all examples of better options for only a few more bucks.
@@AutoEdits Fram filters do fine. If you run for 80k miles on a Fram it's gonna give more issues sooner than some of the more expensive brands but as long as you regularly maintain Fram is fine.
Fram filter are junk. I’m a 30 year retired dealer tech. If we had an engine noise complaint with fram filter, got changed first. Had to replace one engine because Fram filter material plugged nozzles lubricating cylinder walls.
Almost sounded like Freiburger at first
shawn lamonte for sure, he has a hint of freiburger in his voice.
Dude if i saw this video before you were goin to do it i lend a hand thats sooo awesome jasper seems to be the way to go when i get to that put if a new engine
You are amazing.... I didn’t skip even for one second of this video...
Awesome to hear! Thanks so much for checking it out!
Great video -- those new Hemis are incredible motors. Unfortunately, I think that read somewhere that Fiat-Chrysler is going to discontinue the Hemi in a couple of years? Too bad. I have a 2016 Ford Triton V-10(6.8 L; 362 bhp; 457 lb-ft torque) in my motor home and I tow my 2013 Jeep SRT behind it. But its crazy -- the 6.4L Hemi (470 hp and lb-ft torque) in the Grand Cherokee makes over 100 hp more than the Ford V-10 . I think I should tow the motor home behind the Jeep instead? LOL! Hemis are the best.
I agree that the Hemi is a very solid V8 engine and when I learned all of the little goodies in this era, I was even more impressed. Getting 390 HP and 400 LbFt out of a stock 5.7 is really good and SRT takes things to the next level!
I must admit that I have a soft spot for the V10, they sound weird and I like that. Seeing you tow your motor home behind your Grand Cherokee would be hilarious!
Thanks for watching and say hey!
looks too easy, but you need some mad skills to do this. Guess you got the skills locked down! :D
Well, I'm not sure about mad skills but a little bit of luck and determination helps a bunch! Thanks!
anyway, Im impressed.Also your films are great. Tnx for making them
autoedit how long did your swap take just curious we used to do "1day" swap at the shop i worked at anywhere from 3hrs on a 3.7 2wd liberty to 4wd hemi drurangos that took like 12hrs those were long days 4wd ifs truck were a pain due to driverside mount design in sure you know that though lol
With all the shit I read about Jasper, it’s nice to see someone have a good experience with them. I’m looking to get an LS1 for my Corvette. This was helpful!
I've been very happy with the truck engine.
4yrs ago lol, i am kinda excited to hear it fire up, my 07 5.7l durango has broken exhaust bolts and all are very rusty, got shorty's to install once i extract the broken studs.
😎👍😎
great video! greetings from Kazakhstan! you should make more video with this ram!
Howdy and thanks! OK, I will make more videos on the build up of this truck... hope you like!
Does Jasper address the valve seat issue that the 5.7 was plagued with in my platforms?
Why yes they do!
ruclips.net/video/slBM0B5SThc/видео.html
Awesome lol. I get them coming to me all the time with the valve seat issue its just a shame that Dodge never made a recall on something so serious.
I never had any luck with anything from Jasper. In fact the ram/jeep/dodge dealership I wrenched at stopped installing their engines and transmissions but if it works for you then thumbs up.
Sorry to hear about that but I'm stoked with it so far and the guy that ran a shop across from me for a few years used them all of the time with complete success. That's how it popped into my head to call them ... I remembered seeing that truck at his shop.
Are u worried about that air intake being exposed to the open wheel well and water possibly getting sucked in?
+pra3t0rian I was for a bit but have been through some pretty bad weather with it and seems to handle it fine. Just have to clean the mud out every once in a while
Yea not to smart. I'd change that air intake to a snb air intake. So its enclosed do to the open wheel well. It's basically spitting water into the air intake if you drive I the rain which will soak your air filter and let moisture in the intake
You weren't kidding about the heat! You look like you're melting haha. Awesome video though.
Ha! Thanks, it was 110 degrees each day... was effort to stay out there!
Thank you for the video on the 5.7 Hemi Jasper engine. My engine on my 06' Dodge 1500 blew two days ago and was heartbroken, I love my truck and so does the two of my boys, and wasn't ready to get a new one. My local shop gave me some options and told me about the Jasper engine, about a $1000 less than dealer engine, might I add the availability on a factory engine would be on back order with no idea when they would be available. The cost to install and motor I believe to be reasonable along with the warranty. So anyway the video kind of put my mind at ease, I know my local shop is more than capable of the job. Can't wait to drive her again and go on family trips.
Sorry to hear about your engine going out and I hope you have as great an experience as I've had with my Jasper engine. Thanks for watching and good luck!
Putting in a Jasper 351m in my 79f150, great video
what fred,dave or Freiburger couldnt stop by hehehe
+theraif LOL! They are busy being superstars! I'm just a guy on his side yard with a set of tools.
I work at jasper engines!!
I heard that jasper's are junk.
Jasper has the worst revews of any reman engine company
Jordan Wheat they have always had pathetic rebuilds that's why they gave him the engine to help with promoting their company.
@@bonesjones3421 will I hear the Italian junk dodge 5.7 ain't that great. Pretty lame why they are breaking
@@stevechase6342 there breaking because dodge didnt think about putting in a high performance oil pump. When at a idle for to long the bearings on the lifters seize up and take out the cam. 3,000 dollars for a rebuild or 4,000 for a new engine. I know that problem to well!
Awesome work very cool video and always good to see someone who actually works on there cars. Still working on my Rubicon and driveshafts.
Cool to hear and like that you have a Rubicon project as well!
autoedit I want a PowerWagon next lol
This is like the third time to watch this video. Good job on that install. I've got a 5.7 in my JKU and love it.
How did you get a 5.7 in your JKU??? I need that kit!!!
Lol...I bought it from Dealer in south Florida. It is an AEV conversion. I love that company. Of course my bank account doesn’t though. But I justified it thinking they might not do V8 conversions on the new JL’s.
BRAVO !!
Thanks so much!
This an extreme way to avoid the 100000km plug change;)
HAHA! That is a good one!!!!
Spark plugs last longer than the camshaft/lifters in the Hemi engine.
@@mph5896 Another clueless fan boy!
jllrue ha, funny part of it is I have a pile of wiped out cams.
This was actually cool to watch bro nice job explaining what you were looking at and fixing
Thanks a bunch!
AutoEdits no problem man I was just looking because I have a old ram truck in excellent condition that has a bad shell and was possibly looking to swap the 5.9l into another truck this was helpful man
I remember that heat wave in the scv. And I love going thru sand canyon road with my import 90 crx si.
I got the same truck but stock and I just hit the 100k miles on it, do you recommend doing the same ?
You don't need to do this until something fails in your engine and you'll know when that happens. Just do the routine maintenance and enjoy your truck!
@@AutoEdits thanks I've been enjoying my truck and now that I see that you have the same as mine I even love it more because they'res a lot of stuff I wanted to do that you already have going in you're truck. Thanks for you're videos.
