I hope you don't mind if I piggyback on your thread for a minute..
I've hummed over the possibilities for my truck, boosting, all bolt-ons, and a Hemi swap, well lets just say I've made the choice and I'm going to start the planning and info gathering stage aswell. I just have some questions for now, and of course it's the usual ones..
(not worried about the motor mounts yet.)
1st question is the wiring question: I have an 05' 4.7l 2 wheel drive. If I get an 05 hemi, is my wiring portion of this swap going to be as easy as it sounds from all the forums/threads I've read? I mean, basically just plug and play using my 4.7 computer right? Splice in different connector styles here and there, change my O2 sensors, and that's it? The difference is also in the ignition coils too right, as there are 2 per cylinder on the hemi, or something like that? So I'd just need to splice those onto the same circuit?
2nd question is the oilpan question: I'm a 2wd, do I even need to worry about the oil pan at all? I mean, I've seen some heavy modifications done to these pans on the 4x4 models, but not much info on the 2wds..
Thanks in advance guys.
