I recently got a 98.5.2 Quad cab 2wd i love seeing yall build this 2nd gen Magnum i would love a single turbo or even a twin setup. You guys keep doing yalls thing its awesome.
I did as well and I want to put the 6.4 in it, lower it a good bit and put a fat tire on the rear... that way the kids can get to school on time when I wake up late.
Hell yeah guys, I just joined the channel I own a 96 1500 with the 5.2L, to say you guys are an inspiration is a given but you really are I know exactly what I wanted to do with the truck but now I have an idea of what parts a good and which ones I like. Thank you definitely a forever subscription
@@RacingRamFam most likely the top end the truck has 298,000 km on it I'm from Canada so I need to do the top end and probably that steamroller cam you put in from Hughes engine works that thing sounds nasty and then after that tune it because I know that cam needs a tune
No 15.5psi is max on my 2bar map sensor, so anything past 15.5psi I can’t tune for. I didn’t know this at the time so ya who knows how much boost and prob leaned out. Could of been 20+psi

@@Eric--zs6umSo this is a positive affirmation moment where we pretend that the truth does not matter in order to make someone feel better by lying to them?

You do realize that they want to do better? Maybe the dyno should have lied and shown that it was making 900 horsepower?
Hell yea bub, love seeing any an all work on whitie. Looking forwards to seeing everything start to smooth over an really see what these 5.2 magnums really can do!!! Keep up with the good work, dialing the truck in an seeing the overall performance with 318-5.2 magnums!!! U inspire me more & more to getting on track an start going on turbocharging my 318 magnum build!!!
@@RacingRamFam, right on bub I sure will!! Probably need or help off an on as I go but the more I see from ur vids. The easier it is to know what to do an what not to do an figure out the rest as I go, still gonna be a while longer before I start but ull definitely be my go to guy when I need the help!
Looking forwards to the insanity and how she'll pull once I get finished with the engine setup/build! Cant wait to see the next video, hopefully ull show us as u go figuring out the bog with the truck, new dyno data an how fast/hard she pulls down the track! Would really love to see how she runs sled pulling, really curious about how much weight these 5.2s can really pull when tuned up, how far they can pull the weight, etc! Would be an idea video to see maybe in the near future?!?!
@@RacingRamFam thanks for the reply! I’m working through tuning software as well. So many settings for find and tune correctly. I was getting boost cut at partial throttle for a long time and it was maddening. Was a simple click when I finally found what it was.
also if you change that intake manifold to that hughs air gape should fix your problem on the top end cuz that stock intake after a point becomes a vacuum chamber because of the runners inside of it
Good evening, I'm from Brazil and here V8 engines are very rare, and the few that are available cost a fortune. I own a 1998 Grand Cherokee with a 5.2 magnum engine. I'm boosting it, it already has a manual transmission from the dakota v6, only rear-wheel drive and it has Fueltech programmable injection. I would like to know if your engine is forged, from the little I could understand watching the other videos I didn't see anything about it, I'm very afraid of breaking my engine because, converting it into dollars, it would be almost 10 thousand dollars to redo it here, it is extremely expensive for us. So my doubts would be: 1- Do I need to forge to run smoothly with 430HP wheel? 2-The original injectors hold up to what power? 3- How long can the original fuel pump last? I know that at some point I will have to increase the nozzles, but I worry that putting too big nozzles will end up slowing down the car, since I use this car every day for everything. Thank you very much for your attention.
@@RacingRamFam thanks I'll look into it going to build a mine with Borg Warner s475 turbo, but do a little at a time for now tho still got to use the truck lol
@@RacingRamFam what? It’s working? Also my friends owns a natural health business that helps a lot of people! Email. And let me know what’s up! You ran it on 30 already?
I can definitely appreciate your efforts, but that truck is garbage. I can make more power with a single turbo magnum and have it look as if it actually belongs under the hood (not through the hood)...and without building a trick longblock first. Sound engineering practices produces solid performance. I have been watching all of the misteps, bad choices, horrible execution from the beginning. I actually thought this was a satirical build at first...that is how bad it is. I'll still continue to watch...but do yourself a huge favor and grenade the engine so that the rust can be used to grow beautiful roses...then put the roses on the grave of where the truck died. I know you can do better...its OK to try a little bit harder.
Jesus why hate so much man? You’re acting like their spending your money and time on a build that you will receive later on. The funny part is you’re the one who decided to sit down and watch them build it.
@@otbs9967should everyone have your view and opinion? They obviously don't share my views and that is part of what we say and do on here...share similar and opposite views.

Oh yes but I would have to redo my entire tube lol we’ll just spray with lots of nitrous

It’s does sound awesome! And is going to rip at the track! Will be spraying it and I’m pumped. Thanks buddy
Same here bro. I watch a video and Im like damn I need mine like this
500hp...not bad. Gonna be real nice after the bugs get figured out

Jesus Christ that thing rips. Ughggh the 5.2 is staying alive longer than I thought 🤤

are the 390 or 3.92 good gears for the 318 will they get u off the line faster will u lose top end speed can the 318 handle the 390 gears
