V-10 install

Post by rx1mtnman »

Has anyone on here ever stuffed a V-10 from a 2nd gen ram into a swepty? I stumbled across one for a pretty good deal if I can make it work.

Looks like the firewall area will need a massage to fit in. There's also a green sweptline I saw elsewhere.

Looks like they also tilted the driveline for the transmission to clear.

Thanks for the info. I may just hold out for another 440 or wait until I can get the 383 rebuilt.
