hey guys.. looking for a little more power out of my 360. cash is a little tight so i was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions for some bolts ons. better throttle response would be nice and anything that would add some hp. it has 135k on it so the motor isnt as strong as it was back in the day so i need to bring it back to life. any help is apprecitated. thanks!

Hm, that's odd. I know of many 150k+ chevy's running 150 shots on otherwise stock motors....

im still waiting on him to post up what he has.... lets not fill up this thread with crap till we know what he needs help with

there are plenty of cra.... i mean dodge/mopar/jeep engines out there and it would be hard to just guess

the magnum motors are good motors, running nitrous on the stock beer barrel intake, lol a 75 shot will blow that thing right off, the m1 intake like i have can take up to a 300 shot, but still nitrous on that thing with 135k miles, is pushing it.

00DakotaR/T
11-30-2007, 12:09 AM
on his motor you need intake, tb, colder plugs, and luck that you dont blow it

if the motor he has now doesnt smoke or show sigh of 135k then i say go for it,

Start with that. No point in trying to force more air in if you cant get it out.

Next Id do the intake mani.....then an actual intake set....then a cam.


Its vital to make sure you can get out what you are putting in.


Of course you can go get a Hypertech. My dad had that on his 01 Ram w/ the 5.2. Big differance. Is it mtx or atx? (manual or auto?)

true headers exhaust the intake

if you do a cam, you will spin about a grand, and to get better flow to the cam you you spin anothe 2 grand on heads, so about 3k for about a 100 horses,

the stock springs on our heads are shit


and hypetech is shit to 5.9 engines, you can spind 399 on a hypertech or you can 299 on a new mopar pcm, which will do alot more for you, shift points, timing, rev limiter, ect

TxStVanWilder
12-02-2007, 12:27 PM
exhaust (whether it be cat-back or full exhaust), an air intake, then if you want i guess drop $ on an intake mani, do you have electric fans?

you can do cam, but like victor said its roughly a grand with a cam, springs, pushrods and reatiners..... and install too

but for a daily at first i would stick with basic bolt ons for now... exhaust, intake, fans, under drive pullies (do they make them for your truck??) just things of that nature....

and i agree dont go with hypertech, there are plenty of people on here who tune or know someone who can tune your dodge

00DakotaR/T
12-02-2007, 12:47 PM
true,

when you get into the stuff i have mopar cant fix the problems, there is only 3 ways on computers, a flash, stand alone or just a good ol sct tune
as soon as i get my cam, i have to go with sct tune, might be 700 for a tune but by the time im done i should be makeing around 400 hp

yea e-fans are good, you can make your own or buy one from a ls1 camaro or trans am they work good, full under drive pullies work good to

Dodge full size trucks came with the 47rh until 2000 then went to a 47re.Dakota came with the 45 or the 46 depends on year of the truck.
