Cool, haven't wrenched and done stuff with mod's since I got married early 1970! But the sixties were GREAT and this brings back memories of the wide lop of the solid lifter cams back then. I like how you ur re-paving the front of the homestead with rubber! Keep it up and God Bless the USA, especially now!
Sorry South Texas Deathride is the song playing on my stereo in the background of my Highway WOT vids where I get the back end loose on the highway, I must have just thought of the wrong song name when someone asked earlier lol. Anyway THIS song is by The Crystal Method - Get Busy Child. Hope that helps!!!
Those I got from NR Auto back in 2000. Not sure if they are still around. There are many many other companies making way cooler guages now, These werea among the first made back when guages had just started being a trick mod. Now they're everewhere. I like the Indiglo guages myself.
Yep. Taz man rocks. Dad got me those for my first truck and I've kinda just kept em and put em in all my trucks that I've had..... sentimental I guess......
I'd have to look up what differences do what I know that different primary tube diameters, lengths, and collector volumes all move the power band. Some increase HP, some increase Torque. Us common folk dont have the money to build up 5 different engine configurations so we have to rely on internet research to hope for the best combo of parts, which is what I would suggest to you. I only got the ones I did because I got a hell of a deal on them LOL.
None lol. It's essentially open header, I did had some thrush header mufflers to it but those might as well be straight pipes, they dump right even with the trans tailshaft lol.
hey buddy i want to put 1.7 harland rockers in, how hard are they to install and do they add performance, im not looking at a cam thats why i want 1.7 not 1.6
@Colton5555 Yes its a bored out 5.9L Its pulling nothing right now, the engine is currently torn down and in the machine shop. When all these vids were shot, the engine was evidentally totally screwed up. Should have been putting out 500 HP and was only putting down 380ish.
Throw the TBS away its a waste of money and time. As for the cam, go with something that has big lift, decent overlap, and an LSA about 112 degrees. This cam is a KRC 224X cam, but I have Ross forged 12.3CR pistons too which add to the crackle.
Absolutely love your truck. After seeing this, I'm out on the idea of buying a different car to play with, rather improve my truck. What did you do to the transmission? I'm assuming assume it's not factory.
hi i have a 1996 dodge ram 1500 2 door as well its currently stock and im planning on fixing it up. i have a question where did you get those rims? ive seen them on other rams and they look badass.
4.10's and a Detroit Locker. Stock convertor though, it did need a 3500 stall convertor since the engine has no balls down low. Thanks to KRC. Gotta love it....
Meh, truck had been setting for a year or so before I dropped that engine in, and before that there had been ALOT of partying in that truck, beer stains everywhere on the carpets lol. I dont give a shit what the carpet looks like I have a brand new carpet and floormats to go in it still in the original box setting in the back seat.
You need to buy a 5.9L and rebuild it from the ground up. :) I had the 5.2L before I got my 5.9L and the 5.9L IMO is a MUCH better engine. I have yet to have issues with the motor. I went through 3 5.2L motors :-/
i know about these engines, i have just read something different. i knew the stroke was different but i thought the magnum ones from 93-02 had the same block with different heads?
aint nothing like 2nd generation rams man gotta love em. best all roundd moters run and run hard and will still never blow. nice truck man. u needa convert it to manual tho xD
I know this video is super late but I'm thinking of making a build out of this truck since my parents do need it anymore, what are some great mods besides the engine that will boost factory engine performance?
Umm, Im confused. I don't own a car. I own a truck. And what do you mean "older"? Like, it's older in years than you have in I.Q. points? That makes it not very old I'd say. Thanks for stopping in!! BTW, if you are driving a Ford or a Chevy, might wanna join AAA. I hear they are a livesaver for when your jalopy breaks down and needs a tow.
i really dont care, they are similar and are in the same engine line. have you rebuilt or modify one of these engines before? my brother has the 318 in 97 ram.
Wow Im an inspiration to someone LOL. I always figured I'd be an example of what NOT to do. At least that's what I was voted most likey to be back in school. Glad to see I turned my life around. Hahaha!! Hey email me some of your truck pix. My email link is on DTO on any of my posts or my profile. I'd like to see what you're building!!
this is the most bad ass truck ive ever seen. i wish my ram would sound and perform like yours
0:43 beautiful 😭👌💪

Looks great.
@rikasano1 that makes a ton of sense. the new hemis are made in mexico

hey how would a x-pipe sound good on our trucks compaired to a y-pipe ??
Yep. Taz man rocks. Dad got me those for my first truck and I've kinda just kept em and put em in all my trucks that I've had..... sentimental I guess......
dang sounds good

NICE TRUCK!!!
NICE!! sounds great
nice truck i have a 1996 5.9 ram...love the front bumper where can i get one of those...thanks
Sweet truck sounds great do you know what your 1/4 mile time is?
None lol. It's essentially open header, I did had some thrush header mufflers to it but those might as well be straight pipes, they dump right even with the trans tailshaft lol.
hey buddy i want to put 1.7 harland rockers in, how hard are they to install and do they add performance, im not looking at a cam thats why i want 1.7 not 1.6

stock transmission??????
what do you have for exhaust on there?
Love the mopar dude I've got a 96 ram im building has some issues pls respond you might know what I can do
Throw the TBS away its a waste of money and time. As for the cam, go with something that has big lift, decent overlap, and an LSA about 112 degrees. This cam is a KRC 224X cam, but I have Ross forged 12.3CR pistons too which add to the crackle.
Absolutely love your truck. After seeing this, I'm out on the idea of buying a different car to play with, rather improve my truck.
What did you do to the transmission? I'm assuming assume it's not factory.
is it possible to get the 4.7L dakota (think it's a 318?) to a 408?
what cam would you suggest for a 1996 ram 1500 5.9l?
did u watch the video?
nice strip
if you change the headers wat happens like in power wise
That engine sounds pretty darn good to me! Stock rear gears?
hi i have a 1996 dodge ram 1500 2 door as well its currently stock and im planning on fixing it up. i have a question where did you get those rims? ive seen them on other rams and they look badass.
4.10's and a Detroit Locker. Stock convertor though, it did need a 3500 stall convertor since the engine has no balls down low. Thanks to KRC. Gotta love it....
are the 5.2L any good cuss thats the ram i'm looking at buy'n its a 1998...
"H"
Hey man. Ive been wanting to order that great white cam for 4.7 from KRC...i havent talke to anyone from KRC have u ordered from them??
Thanks!
5.2 is not a 360
where did you get the white guages?? would love to get my hand on them
the 5.2 and 5.9 are the same engine but with different heads. the 5.2's are great
Anyone remember that song from FM2?
Love this Video. When it's all back together, would love to see some track footage. Particularly against some lowly lightning and SS silverados.
Union Underground - South Texas Deathride
after all that i was curious did fuel milage go up any
that's wicked! love the sound... look up a Hemi Dakota... it's insanity.
man sharp truck im fixing my 02 up and it has a 5.9 any suggestions
What front bumper is that
about how much money have u spent on this dodge in all??
Meh, truck had been setting for a year or so before I dropped that engine in, and before that there had been ALOT of partying in that truck, beer stains everywhere on the carpets lol.

i know about these engines, i have just read something different. i knew the stroke was different but i thought the magnum ones from 93-02 had the same block with different heads?
That thing is Nasty wow sounds awesome
Is that the 5.9? And how much hp and torque are you pulling?
Um, I do have a 5.9. That's what is in the video. Both my Rams run 5.9L.
u should put a 99 sport bumper i think it would look a lil better
Not much!
aint nothing like 2nd generation rams man gotta love em. best all roundd moters run and run hard and will still never blow. nice truck man. u needa convert it to manual tho xD
I know this video is super late but I'm thinking of making a build out of this truck since my parents do need it anymore, what are some great mods besides the engine that will boost factory engine performance?
All I wish for is a dashboard lol
is your truck a stick or automatic???
"H"
Umm, Im confused. I don't own a car. I own a truck. And what do you mean "older"? Like, it's older in years than you have in I.Q. points? That makes it not very old I'd say. Thanks for stopping in!!
BTW, if you are driving a Ford or a Chevy, might wanna join AAA. I hear they are a livesaver for when your jalopy breaks down and needs a tow.
about 8500 to get the engine to run like shit. Another 750 bucks to find a stock 360 to put back in it lol.
How many horse power have you dodge?
how much did all of that run you???
@rikasano1 Funny how both my 360's will blow a Hemi away, even my stock one. Yep, my ricer ram is too slow lol.
pretty sick truck. i like the colors and the sound is amazing. you should check mine out sometime.
@2809Nick Yep it was, now its setting in the bed of the truck ready for me to rebuild it lol.
@rikasano1 that is pretty stupid.
Hey cool, I guess Im neither since I didnt buy this truck. I built it up. I guess that make me a genius. Thanks for confirming that!
Auto 46RE Trans.
sweet ram, your not going to blow your valvs with the open headers,
i really dont care, they are similar and are in the same engine line. have you rebuilt or modify one of these engines before? my brother has the 318 in 97 ram.
@wfhs52 5.2L Magnum = 318 5.9L Magnum = 360
Drop about 8 grand under the hood LOL.
dude vaccum that damn dodge out!! i saw the neglected interior in that thing!! you should be ashamed!
not shit, but they are the same block and everything but different heads
Great minds think alike I guess lol.
Daaannngg
stripes are a lil fat for my taste
Wow Im an inspiration to someone LOL. I always figured I'd be an example of what NOT to do. At least that's what I was voted most likey to be back in school. Glad to see I turned my life around. Hahaha!!
Hey email me some of your truck pix. My email link is on DTO on any of my posts or my profile. I'd like to see what you're building!!
@shaggyjam AAAAAW did you get picked on by some one wit a RAM...let me guess ricer right...your too funny
