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

Dodge lets us drive 100-years' worth of history [w/videos]

Thu, 03 Jul 2014



A raft of important production models from the last hundred years were available for me to either drive or ride in.
Dodge is 100 years old this year. So, as happened on Ford's recent centennial, the 50-year birthday of the Porsche 911, and others, the company has an excuse to trot out the highlights of its history next to its upcoming model lineup, and declare that "these are the fruits of the Dodge Boys' tree whose roots have grown strong." Or something like that. Never so hampered by marketing skepticism that I'll pass up the opportunity to burn someone else's rubber, I was happy to drive out to Meadow Brook Hall in Rochester Hills, MI - former grand estate of the Dodge family - to hear the spiel.

2014 Dodge Dart Blacktop glosses over performance

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

The Dodge Dart is a decent little car. It's honest, basic transportation, and many of us at Autoblog are genuinely fond of the Alfa Romeo-based compact sedan. For 2014, not a whole lot changes in the Dart world, save the addition of this new Blacktop edition that makes its debut here at the Detroit Auto Show.
It's all very simple, this Blacktop package, and doesn't actually alter performance in any way. Instead, buyers are treated to blacked-out exterior bits like 18-inch wheels, the crosshair grille and headlamp bezels. Inside, black/tungsten or black/red cloth seats are available, with red contrast stitching throughout the cabin.
Adding the Blacktop pack to your Dart SXT with the Rallye Appearance Group will set you back a scant $295, and while it's just an appearance package, it all looks pretty nice to us.

Chrysler banks $507 million in Q2, trims 2013 earnings forecast

Tue, 30 Jul 2013

Chrysler has some good news and some bad news. First, profits were up 16 percent over the second quarter of 2012, bringing the Auburn Hills, Michigan-based manufacturer $507 million on the back of strong demand for trucks and SUVs (a recurring theme this quarter, particularly in the US). Q2 revenue was up as well, from $16.8 billion in 2012 to $18 billion in 2013. The bad news is that the Pentastar's overall earnings forecast for net income in 2013 has been trimmed from $2.2 billion to between $1.7 and $2.2 billion, according to Automotive News.
In addition to the adjusted net income forecast, Chrysler tweaked its operating profit from $3.8 billion to between $3.3 and $3.8 billion. This has gone largely unexplained by Chrysler, perhaps hoping the news of a three-percent increase in its transaction prices for Q2 will allow it to sweep this adjustment under the rug.
The star of the show for Chrysler has been its US sales, which saw a 10-percent jump, both bettering the industry average of eight percent and improving over the same stretch of 2012. As with the increase in transaction prices, Chrysler has the new Ram pickup and Jeep Grand Cherokee to thank. Perhaps most worrying from this report, though, is that every brand in the automaker's stable saw an increase in sales... except for the Chrysler brand itself.
