You won't be disappointed, this thing rides like a dream and the HO Hurricane moves this beast like a race car!

Got back from our camping expedition last night. Just over 2,800km round trip.

The Ram didn't even flinch.

Kicked it out of the garage for a couple days so I can get the engine and transmission out back in my Dakota R/T

Wow, Is that the 318 that came in it or did you upsize?

Well, it started out as the 5.9/360 that came in it, but it's now a 410 stroker.

That is wicked!!!

Actually did not realize the 360 was the only engine put in the R/T. I did test drive a low mileage one but thought it was the 318

Yep, that's mostly what made it the R/T. This was back when the R/T badge actually meant higher performance, and wasn't just an appearance package as it has been used for since 2005.

I guess if you wanna call the stock 360 high performance.😆
Had one in 1999 in a RAM and it left a lot to be desired. Weren’t they only like 230 hp?

I think I saw today the 360 in the RT was 250. In a light Dakota I imagine it would push it pretty good. But my 318 in my 78 d100 was only rated for 130. I put a small cam, 4bbl, and duals on it but I doubt it got over 200 or so with the stock bottom end and heads. My Dad's 92 was a whole lot stouter. Back in 1970 the 340 would get you 275 in a Demon or Duster

I have a 2001 Dodge Ram SLT and I believe you are correct or maybe 235. Thought about getting a 6 cylinder in 2018 when I ordered my Ram because I was use to the 2001 and still serves me well, somewhat.

Decided on the 5.7 with 395 hp. The 2001 is tagged as 16 mpg vs the 5.7 at 21 mpg highway.
