GOING OVER JEEP WRANGLER HEMI SWAP PRICING, DIRECTION AND THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING A MOTOR 

Which pump did you use

@@ghostlyrich I reused the pump from the GC and swapped out the valves and springs so I could reuse the factory PS line from the JK.

Lol i haven’t done that with the ram pump yet and so far lines have been fine haha

Awesome man! Yea works great

The problem will be finding an ecu to communicate with that transmittion as well as the vehicle side. That's why nag1 and the 8 speed is best. If you go with the 8 speed, you need to purchase the jeep speed shop kit as it comes with a module to communicate with that specific 8 speed

@@ghostlyrich JSS Has the ECU kit for the 5.7 and 545RFE trans combo. Its an extra 250. Im also told its better to keep the Eng/Trans as a pair to further reduce errors in ECU/PCM issues. Plus im not keen on spending another few grand just for a different transmission when the one i have works perfectly fine. Even finding a nag1 or 8 speed is like trying to find a skittle in a 500 gallon drum of M&Ms. To further add to the questions, if i already have a fully running 5.7 as a daily driver, do i still need to get different a/c compressor? Im also hoping that i can manage to shove the Rad/Oil Cooler, Condensor and the trans(i think) oil cooler from the 5.7 Durango i have in there so i dont need to upgrade the rads/fan/etc if it physically fits, mounts can be fabricated. I’d also like to put a whipple supercharger on the top of the 5.7, but that shoots the air intake to the wrong side for the jeep airbox so i’d have to fabricate something to go between them so i can still install a snorkel kit that fits under the hood to be discrete when needed. Might need to source a Dana 44 front axle and buffed up axle / drive shafts to run 35s and a 3.5” lift but i want this thing to be able to get me through a doomsday scenario

Definitely get yourself a challenger engine around 2014 ish just so it has the newer eagle heads and all that jaz. If you’re not gonna rebuild, the engine, definitely get something that is low kilometres as well or miles if you’re in the states.

Actually dont know. I would look up if the part numbers the same for both fan clutchs for clutch assembly on rock auto

I did have a conversation with Todd at JSS yesterday and he confirmed that you cannot used that fan but I believe he said because of the actual cooling capability. Not necessarily a fitment issue. I went ahead and ordered the Camaro fan and shroud from him anyways. Thank you for the great videos as I’m just getting started and trying to figure it all out

Any car that came with the hemi even if it was 5.7 it works with 6.4. Example 2012 dodge challenger cor Chrysler 300c

Can I use the 6.4 stock harness for the swap?

Sorry the 3000$ if for the 8 speed, 1500$ for kit say 900$ for 8 speed then you need the charger shifter and tranny lines so i rounded to 3000$ The nag 1 is just. The bell housing

Exactly, i would Just rebuild it so you don’t install a faulty one

@@ghostlyrich fact im trying to cut as much cost as i can because this is a very expensive swap but that makes it some what worth wild

Yes if it is out of a car, if its out of truck and has water pump pulley “threads of pulley” will need a Camaro ss fan

Oh i see. I have a crate 6.4 for a challenger/charger

Im sure you could :)

I would message todd at jeep shop to be 100% sure but i cant see it being a problem since its controlled by the pcm. Whats awesome is that pcm and wiring harness should be good to you just need the pcm reprogrammed to your vehicle (security key and pin)

Perfectly

It’s a parasitic loss of power but again if you don’t mind the power loss 100% go ahead with the mechanical fan

@@ghostlyrich ya for a Jeep i wouldn't mind the 3hp loss 😄 i wouldn't try to win any races in it anyway just the get up and go of the V8 😛

Lol forsure just be sure to grab the jss mechanical shrowd or fab one up if you can and your good to go
