  • Tearing down our 5.9 magnum build short block to see if our stroker crankshaft is still savable after it spun a rod bearing. We also show our new H beam eagle connecting rods that will be going in this 360 magnum. This stroker engine is going into our 4x4 drag truck build and the turbo 5.9 will be given all the boost.

    I had the same crank out of a 408 short block I purchased. I ended up turning the rod and mains .10 under. Finding the bearings were a pain and they were pricey but still cheaper than buying a new crank and standard bearings. Biggest thing is having a good shop that can grind the crank.

    I've always heard that the I beam is stronger design.

    Ive heard from alot of of questionable sources that its best to go with scat over eagle , and also I changed cam in my 5.9 and had same chewed up bearing lol and ran it for thousands of miles with good oil pressure!. Obviously not ideal tho

      I agree. I also noticed Eagle uses 3/8” rod bolts compared to Scats 7/16. Also there are plenty of photos of the Eagle cranks snapping on the front journal. That’s why I went with Scat in my 408 build.

    I'm taking heads and cam out of 5.9 Durango for my 5.2 ram. I'm doing a budget build after watching your channel .Maybe Whipple supercharger I can't afford the nitrous and turbos

      5.9 and 5.2 have the same heads and a 5.3 stock camshaft is biggest then a 5.9. Also nitrous cost $300 to do

      Are the crankshafts 5.9 and 5.2 also identical? I mean, it may be possible to replace the crankshaft with a longer-stroke one with low pistons and get a little more internal combustion engine volume...

    Does any 5.2 mag 46RH Automatic trans torque converter have a big square weight on it? For any reason? First tranny swap i found one at the junkyard but my dakota 5.2 originally doesn't have a weight...PLEASE HELP thanks

    • @RacingRamFam
      @RacingRamFam  Před rokem

      How big? 5.9 magnums used the flex plate to balance the engine not the converter. La 5.9 used the converter with offset holes that’s how you know is if one hole on the converter is offset

      @@RacingRamFam Planning on a 5.9 and stickshift for my 95 dakota. I found a kit that converts it to OBD2 from OBD1.5. Its like 2k though because its from PIE. It will be worth it though because of the options that immediately opens up for 96 and up. I would end up spending around 2k on another computer for the vehicle if I didn't just convert to OBD2 and then I would have to wire and learn a new one and program everything.
