Hello, up for sale is one of my toys.  I am selling it to simply free up some funds and pay off some bills.  It is paid for and I do not have to sell it, but I hate just seeing it sit the majority of the time so I am giving someone the opportunity to enjoy the Durango and get it out there more.

The durango was originally a 2001 SLT 4 wheel drive.  It is now converted to 2 wheel drive with the Hemi swap.  There was a major realestate issue with the 6.1 hemi oil pan and the front differential.  I chose to convert it to 2WD as it does not see the winter weather anymore and the stock trasfer case would of had issues with much 4wd romping.  The 6.1 HEMI has a Comp Cams XFI273 cam and Arrington Engines Push Rods in it.  The exhaust is pretty much open 3" and dumps in front of the rear tires.  It gets pretty obnoxious when out getting on it! Better be careful in areas with noise ordanances!  Neighbors with car alarms set will hate it when you take a romp down the street, LOL!!  On the dyno the durnago is pushing 400hp at the wheels.  It currently has 4.56 gear in it so hope you like buying tires!  It ran 13.7 in the 1/4, even with the big heavy 22" rims!  (See pics for time slips #742.)  I have some much lighter drag radials and rims that will go with if you want them.  There is also a nitrous kit partially installed.  It just needs the nitrous and fuel lines hooked up under the hood and the controller wired and setup.  Currently has a 75 shot jets but I have 100 shot in the kit.  The rest of the system will go with, unless you do not want it.  If you are wanting to show it more than play with it, there is a larger much more of a show piece sub box that can go with too.  It will need re-wired, but will come with the 2 x 15" subs, 2 x 12" subs, and 4 amplifiers that were originally on it.  The prettier sub box is much heavier, but the Durango has load leveling assist to level it back up.  I also have a hitch that goes with.

Some more information on the Durango: It has a beefed up 45RFE trans in it by Bowler Performance.  The 6.1 HEMI is from a wrecked '06 Charger SRT8. '04 5.7 HEMI ram ECU so that it can control the engine and the trans, the 5.7 ECU luckily uses the same type of communication as the '01 Durango, so ALL the gages work properly. Also with the 5.7 truck ECU, the 45RFE became a 5-45RFE, meaning one more forward gear ratio. There is always a check engine light on because I did not hook up all the emissions equipment, but if someone wanted to they could purchase the items and wire them in, but without adding catalytic converters and some more substantial mufflers, it won't pass an emissions test.  I am sure there is someone out there who can remove the emission codes from the ECU as another option, I just never fully researched it.   

Please message me with any questions you may have.

Thanks for viewing, Dan

2015 Dodge Charger configurator opens up shop

Thu, Dec 11 2014

Itching to get your hands on a new 2015 Dodge Charger? Your day is almost nigh, my friend While you're waiting, you can spec out how you'd want your muscle sedan to look as Dodge has included the revised four-door in its online configuration tool. Though it's not the most impressive or interactive of configurators we've seen, the site lets you choose any color you want (from the limited array available anyway) along with all the key options packages and such. First you'll need to choose a trim level though, but we're afraid the Hellcat version isn't part of this site, and the SRT site hasn't launched a configurator yet for the world's fastest production sedan, so you'll have to choose between SE, SXT and R/T trim levels.

Mopar unveils Dodge Challenger Drag Pak [w/video]

Sat, Jun 27 2015

Dodge is going drag racing, and it's doing it with an all-new version of the Challenger for NHRA's Sportsman class. FCA's Mopar parts and performance arm announced the new Challenger Drag Pak Friday, showing off a version with a 354-cubic-inch (that's a 5.8-liter, by the way), supercharged V8 and a 426-ci (7.0-liter), naturally aspirated V8 – both Hemis, of course – that can get the big coupes through the quarter-mile in "the eight-second range." While the two engines deliver similar performance, at their base, they're quite a bit different. The supercharged model uses a cast-iron block, while the 426 has aluminum for both the block and head. That said, both models get customized engine calibrations, and are mated to unique, race-spec automatic transmissions. But drag racing is about far more than just outright power. Mopar significantly updated the four-link rear suspension, adding a four-inch rear axle from Strange Engineering, along with an aluminum, nine-inch third member, while the rear-axle housing has been strengthened in general. Both the rear shocks and front struts can be adjusted for rebound and compression, too. Lightweight 15-inch wheels, meanwhile, are shod in super-sticky Hoosier drag radials, with nine inches of tread in back and 4.5 inches in front. The new Challenger Drag Pak should run the quarter-mile in "the eight-second range." In the cabin, there's an NHRA-spec roll cage, a Racepak gauge cluster, and a handsome pair of Sparco racing seats. Outside, supercharged models get blue decals, while naturally aspirated varieties get black stickers, although there's more to the new Challenger dragster's exterior than just its decals. Mopar tweaked the big-scoop hood, promising it's easier to get up to check on the engine, and the designers also added trailer tie-down straps in both the front and rear. While the dragster was the big news today, Mopar officials also announced the two enhanced Scat Pack kits for both the Dodge Charger and Challenger R/T. The 5.7-liter Hemi models gain an extra 56 horsepower and 30 pound-feet of torque in the Scat Pack 2 thanks to a new cam, valve springs, pushrods, and gaskets. The Scat Pack 3, meanwhile, adds 75 hp and 44 lb-ft, on top of the gains from the lower packages. That should be perfect for drivers who wish to snort in the face of their SRT 392-driving friends. The third stage adds a ported cylinder heads, as well as high-flow manifolds and catalysts.

Dodge Charger Pursuit nets quickest lap in police car test

Mon, 30 Sep 2013

We wouldn't advocate trying to outrun the police, no matter what you're driving and no matter what they are. But if you see a Dodge Charger bearing down on you with blue lights flashing in your rearview mirror, you'd better think twice before attempting to flee, because the Charger Pursuit has once again emerged as the fastest police cruiser out there.
In the latest Police Vehicle Evaluation held by the Michigan State Police at Grattan Raceway, Dodge says its new Charger Pursuit AWD posted a lap time of 1:33.85. That's quicker than any of the other law enforcement vehicles present, but also makes it the quickest all-wheel-drive cruiser available to law-enforcement officials. That may not make it the quickest of all time, but that honor belongs to the rear-drive Dodge Charger Pursuit, which cuts a fraction of a second off its AWD counterpart's time with a 1:33.70. But in regions where the extra traction could come in handy, that's as negligible a difference as we've ever seen.
Of course, the annual PVE sessions held by the Michigan State Police take in to account a wide variety of performance tests, including top speed, acceleration, braking, handling, fuel economy and ergonomics. The MSP has yet to reveal its full findings from its 2014 model year tests, but we'll be sure to bring them to you when they are published.
