Sorry guys, Engine didnt come in till thursday and had a bout with food poisining, then a death in my family, then a trade show. So have been swamped. Have a big football game this saturday and next. I might be able to get it in mid week next week.
I have a bunch of pics, so far with the hemi and several other projects going on. I will try and post this sunday.

Looking forward to seeing the pix of your swap.

Very interested to see the progress. Wondering with all the people that would love to have this Hemi why they dont just offer it as a factory option? Or maybe that is planned some day??

I would not pay an extra $3k for the package that included electric locks and windows, but I would have paid the extra $5k (or more) for the Hemi!

Hey nycauburn,
Hope everything is going ok for you. Have you been able to make any progress with your swap? I am just about finished with the majority of the purchasing side (I hope) on my swap, and have removed the 3.8L engine. Next in line are the transmission and TC. I took the engine out seperate, because I didn't have a whole lot of room to take out the entire engine/trans/tc assembly at one time. No biggie.
Let us know if you have been able to get any more work done on yours! And if you have come across any major issues as well. So far, so good for me. But I haven't started putting anything back in yet ..............
