Author	Topic: HEMI - One of 2003's 10 Best Engines
CJ Prowler Junkie Posts: 18860 From: Rochester Hills, MI USA Registered: JUL 2000	posted 01-13-2003 10:52 PM Ward's AutoWorld named the HEMI Magnum 5.7-liter V-8 as one of 2003's 10 best engines. The HEMI Magnum is "the new-generation reincarnation of the fabled HEMI V-8 of the muscle-car past," according to Ward's Auto World. The new HEMI is 41 percent more powerful, churns out 12 percent more torque and is about 10 percent more fuel efficient than the 5.9 liter OHV V-8 it replaces for use in Dodge Ram and Ram Heavy Duty pickups. According to Ward's, the HEMI Magnum whips its two closest rivals: GM's six-liter Vortec HO 6000 and Ford's upcoming 5.4-liter, three-valve Triton overhead cammer.

Better than 11.5 MPG around town so far and bunches of torque. I highly recommend this engine and the truck. Thanks again Bob and CJ for the Friends and Family deal.

I don't have enough miles on it yet to get a good mileage, but the torque is there for sure. And yes, a big THANK YOU to Bob and CJ for all your help in this. ------------------ This message has been edited by jd2ksilver on 01-14-2003 at 12:00 AM

BeWare Prowler Junkie Posts: 18511 From: Acworth,GA,USA Registered: JUL 2000	posted 01-14-2003 02:48 PM Linda and I both love our new Hemi 1500. I have between 6 and 700 miles so far and we are averaging over 12 MPG around town so far and only expect it to get better.
jd2ksilver Prowler Junkie Posts: 4360 From: Mt. View, CA Registered: JUL 2000	posted 01-17-2003 06:34 PM She's Here !!! The truck that is, Patty comes soon. I'm really happy. Already took it to Reno and back. I don't have the side mirrors like Rich, wish I had thought of it. But the only hauling I am doing is U-Haul trailers for demolition, LoL. But it does have the stereo controls on the steering wheel. Thanks again Bob and CJ May not look it, but it's a 8 foot bed. ------------------ This message has been edited by jd2ksilver on 01-17-2003 at 06:36 PM
