And now we're up to current, the new engine/trans showed up the other day. It's a 5.7 hemi and TR6060 out of a 2010 Challenger. Plans are to do a simple cam swap and build custom headers. Will be going MS3x engine management and a cable style throttle body.

Do you expect the fit to be difficult? Glad it's moving long for you.

Very cool, love the look. I've always wanted to do a drag racing wrangler project.

Thanks for sharing, I don't know why but I've always kind of liked these types of truck conversions. Certainly cheaper bodies than an old musclecar, and you've got that straightforward body on frame construction, not a bad way to go.

Wow, great looking project. Rendering looks nice with the front tires as wide as the back...and the color is perfect! I have a feeling that Hemi will see a turbo in its future!

This project is cool. What do you think it will weigh?
