Learn the tricks of the trade in modernizing your vintage Mopar with modern Hemi technology. The modern Hemi Gen III 5.7L, 6.1L, 6.4L, and Hellcat engines produce amazing amounts of horsepower and torque, and current electronic engine controls produce exceptional reliability and respectable fuel economy. As a result, these are popular engines to swap into classic muscle cars, hot rods, and other vehicles. In particular, these Hemi engines can be easily installed in classic A-Body, B-Body, and E-Body Mopar muscle cars. New Hemi Engine Swaps expertly guides you through each crucial step of the engine-swap process so that the swap can be completed on a budget and with minimum hassle. Selecting the right adapter plates and motor mounts for a specific project car is essential, as is choosing or fabricating a transmission crossmember.

He also explains how to integrate the engine wiring harness to the chassis wiring harness and install the EFI system componentry, including the electric fuel pump, high-pressure lines, fuel filters, and other parts. In addition, you are shown how to install drive-by-wire pedals and how to upgrade springs, shocks, and sway bars for a fully sorted high-performance Hemi. All parts adapting and retrofitting is thoroughly covered. The modern Hemi engine is lighter, stronger, and offers far better drivability and performance than older Mopar V-8 engines. You don't want to waste time, and you want the best performance for your dollar.
