Finally done!

And i didnt want some kind of wimpy little turbo four cylinder

so i got a V8, out of a new, 2004 Chrysler… It has 340 horsepower and nearly 400 lbs of torque…

Car ran low 13 last weekend on the track with this in it…heeheheh it was worth the $2000 from the junkyard for the engine and the custom-fabricated mounts, slight rear-end and firewall modification as well as many hours of extreme head-banging-into-wall. Had to use a different driveshaft, make some new driveshaft saddle things i forget what theyre called, upgraded to a Kaaz rear end thats apparently able to handle the torque, and it wasnt really that hard. Total time to install and fabricate was a few hours a night for 3 weeks.

Message me if you want details on how its done, the hemi is so damn smooth and powerful…really feels great in the car… too bad i cant  
keep the manual though.

If the picture is real , I give you a congrats but like jesse said on the previous post , it looks like a ka valve cover underneath the hemi cover , The intake manifold looks like a dohc /sr . I have no idea what a hemi looks like so the pictures are good enough for me . congrats
