I'm gonna go old school with the build.  You can actually get a carb intake for the 5.7.  I'm gonna do a Holley 850VS I think  :scratchchin:

Cool. U still gonna run the coils? FAST makes a system to work with the carb setup...it just controls spark..its FAST XIM.

Will definitely look into it.  Have the complete stock block from an 06 Ram to start with.  Will be looking everything over and weighing my options this winter.

IMO putting a carb on a 5.7 or 6.1 Hemi is like taking a step back. Nothing beats fuel injection  :Twocents:
Sold my Charger unfortunately....never got it finished.

Picking up 727 from rebuilder this weekend, ordered TTI headers, Torque Converter, "divorced" charging system...should be all installed by next week...then the only thing left will be the fuel system and electric fans.

I have the XV intake, a Summit 750VS, the MSD 6HEMI box and wiring that's coming off of the car late winter/early spring to go EFI.  I bought it all new so I'm not 100% as far as what to ask. 

I'm also converting from truck to car accessories so I'll have all of those off of the car, too.

Megasquirt it.

exactly....     the MSIII will handle everything for the Gen3 Hemi -  I am thinking of ditching my factory PCM and going that route as a stand alone for boost later on.
