I have a 360 and it is a bulletproof engine. Those of you who say that they are bad engines obviously do not maintain there engine. Change the oil at least and air filter and it will last forever.
nice low end grunt. sqeual the tires. engine does not seem up to par top end wise. blown plenum maybe. any mods? bolt ons will get you about 8-9 sec. maybe faster with a solid tune. nice vid though. ill be posting my 0-60's as soon as roads are dry. (lotta snow here in alaska)
@moparmaniac666 but i wanna! im pouting now. just so you know. And i wasnt hating on your dodge. I was just saying that I, personally, love my chevy truck and its motor. dont be mad.
iv got a 98 dodge sport 5.9 now when i start the truck the oil pressure gauge is has like a 3 or 4 second delay befor it goes up to pressure. and is slow to rise when i stomp on it. it has actually dropped to zero twice, but i shut of the truck and start it its fine. anyway to tell for sure if its the pump or just the gauge?
@cybillify drop the oil pan if the oil pump pickup looks like its clogged, or messed up thats probably your problem. my 5.2 did that as well. but alittle thicker oil is a good band aid. i suggest anything 15w 40. like rotella.
do you know what the un limited top speed of a 5.7 l 02-09 series ram is, i have a 04 with cai,headers, i assum some exhost cause it sounds nice but i didnt put it on so idk what it is, and ooooo i almost forgot a fukin o2 sim, that keep me from passing inspection, anyway long story short it a hit 110 like its hungry for 130+ but it has the limiter on it :/
prob 112-115. google it. take out the rev limiter and governerand youll love it. stock tranny however will not. might just wanna raise the shift point and you rev limiter. its all in the tune with obd II's
For instance, my 98 was stock and got maybe 9mpg, but i did alot of performance stuff to it. flowmaster 44, k&n stuff, couple other stuff on the engine, new headers. So I now get around 12-14. as long as I don't have my lead foot on.
@nniicckkk1994 I have a 2001 2500 with the 360 v8 with a K&N cold air intake and straight piped and I average about 13-14 mpg. 15-16 highway and about 10-12 city driving if you don't hammer it down all the time. Great truck I love it, dependable and has power for days
All ram magnums are shit. 220 to 240 hp. Yet I can beat them in a race half throttle with 210 hp and pull their truck and another hooked to it with my chevy
@1ownjoo2 so is mine. mine revs up to 5k rpms and puts out 300 torque at 2800 rpms. thats my rpm range for pulling too. no excuses. i push an extra 20 torque and 20 less horsepower. my truck will beat any magnum on the road.
@1ownjoo2 alright bro. here we go. 1989 chevy k1500. 5.7L 350 tbi with 210 hp and 300 torque. k1500 4x4. the engine has been rebuilt and to my knowledge stock. probablly not so stock.
Ok, if its 300lbs of torque then you do not have 20lbs more torque. You have 20 less hp from this 5.9 yes, and 20 or so lbs less torque. The Jeep 5.9 is 245hp, and 345lbs of torque more then the dodge, according to what i have found your dodge weighs about the same as my Jeep. Wouldnt mind racing you at the local drag strip for kicks lol. :)
You havent shown a single video of you smashing anything, i doubt very much you would beat a Jeep that is lighter and faster then a dodge truck. The dodge pickup's you raced weighed alot more then your tiny truck did and engines werent as powerfull as the Jeeps. Your crazy
I've found enough info, and watched enough video's on youtube of 1989 1500 350's to see your truck is slow. Hell most of the video's on here are showing in the range of 9-11 seconds from 0-60. Thats just as slow as this video... You can reply back all your want, but im done with this post. I already won, i know how fast your truck is and it would be 2 car lengths behind any stock Jeep or Dakota.. A few tiny mods to the 5.9 and you'll be 4 car lengths back
@1ownjoo2 thats funny. nice to know you kmow my truck inside out. my 0-60 is timed at under 8 seconds. my slowest is 8 1/2. that was before intake and exhaust. ive smoked hemi's easy. i dont think i have to worry bout a little jeep with a magnum.
@1ownjoo2 ok. my ratings for stock are those numbers. besides mine is a single cab chevy shortbed with smaller tires that came stock. some k&n, exhaust, intake manifold. ive beaten 5.9 jeeps. mustang gts. its all the same to me.
I just looked up the rated times for your vehicle... 0-60 is 8.1 seconds, The 1/4 mile is 17.2 seconds at 78mph..
My Jeep is 0-60 at 6.8 seconds, and the qaurter mile is 15.2 seconds at 89 mph
The only thing your Chevy is faster then is the Dodge pickup. I seriously doubt you have ever raced a Jeep 5.9, as they are extremely rare to comeby, and unless you know someone who owns one your talkin abouta your ass
Give me an explanation ? The 360 and Magnum is a 40 year old engine.. If it was such a peice of shit why was in production so long hmmm ? Its one of the best, most reliable V8 engines every made. Even the current 5.7 Hemi's are Magnum block's.
thats true, i see more chrysler cars on the road then pretty much anything, When i say chrysler i mean a combo of Jeep, Dodge, Ram, and the Chysler brand. So i never understood why they seem to not be able to make any money... But now that french company Fiat owns most of chysler so i dunmo, I just hope Fiat doesnt ruin Jeep and Dodge
The 360 LA isnt the same as the magnum either, i guess i should correct myself, 5.7's are called hemi magnum's i dont know why. But anyway what a lot of people dont relise is the 5.9 in its crate form has as much HP and torque then the 5.7 does, the engines on the production vehicles the intake manifold It was built for low rpm torque and sacrificed a lot of hp because of it. I honestly dont know why they moved from the 4.0 and magnum's to the Pentastar and Hemi..
@1ownjoo2 Learn about emissions and drivability. A 390HP 5.7 Hemi is much cleaner, and has far better drivability and fuel economy than an equivalent 390HP LA/Magnum. The 318/360 had no chance of meeting stricter emissions while making 21st century power.
21st century power ? Thats funny.. but anyway Yes i already knew it was because of emissions, the same with the 4.0 they couldnt change it enough to meet the new standards. No need to be a fuckface about it
For you guys who dont know these engines, he obviously has something wrong with it plenum is probably bad which really robs gasmileage and power.. If this thing was working right he should be doing half that speed around 7 seconds which for a truck is really quick.
Give me an explanation ? The 360 and Magnum is a 40 year old engine.. Your comparing a newer engine to an older one ? If it was such a peice of shit why was it in production so long hmmm?? you wont be able to answer this.. Its one of the best, most reliable V8 engines every made. Even the current 5.7 Hemi's are Magnum block's
@REVORACER7 Give me an explanation ? The 360 and Magnum is a 40 year old engine.. If it was such a peice of shit why was in production so long hmmm ? Its one of the best, most reliable V8 engines every made. Even the current 5.7 Hemi's are Magnum block's.
This is a really slow 5.9, you took off at 2 seconds and got to 60 at 14 seconds. This mean you did 12 seconds, 11 if you want to be generous. That means you are offically slower then a toyota prius .. lol
The way the shift points were at it seems like you took off in 2nd gear and not first, and the bad star at the beggining it still shouldnt be doing 12 seconds. My 5.9 Jeep does 0-60 in 7 seconds or a little under
i have a 98 360 durango whats all this about a plenum gasket??? trying to squeeze a little more power out of her any tips? already got air filter new wires and plugs and exhaust taken care of....
@ddog0804 plenum gasket is under the kegger (intake manifold) Kegger is alum, plenum plate is steel. The 2 pieces expand & contract at different rates (under hot/cold conditons) this can/will cause the factory cork gasket to shear & leak oil from the lifter valley into the intake. If you pop off your air filter (cai or factory box) & without mtr running open tb bores, use a flashlight & mirror to see inside. Thin film of oil is normal, anything more that & its probably leaking & needs replacing
@Runkleforskin, feel free to google me ;) Been known online as RM-Indy since the mid/late 90s. Im sure some of the pages from my website will come up as will posts that Ive made on dodgetalk, dodgeforum or bionicdodge, also moderator on dodgetruck & dragtruk though havent been on those for a few years. Pic I used on my channel here is my Magnum 360 w/30 over & 4" stroke. With the amount of polish & powder coating Ive done just to the motor alone, consider it well above "decent" as u put it ;)
@rmindydotcom Here again, claiming to be someone else. I am a dick, and i am an asshole to everyone, but at least I tell the truth. Quit trying to redeem yourself on youtube, you dont have a dodge truck, you aren't the person you claim to be. End of story.
I like Dodges, I'm actually gonna get a Ram in like a Week, but I was raised with Fords. I prefer Fords, But I think dodges are just as Good. Same goes for Chevy I guess.... lol
@dbrandinni Yeah. I'm getting an '02 Ram with a 360 in a week, I would prefer a Cummins but I can't afford one at the moment. It's my uncles truck so he's selling it to me cheap.
I was raised Ford but I like Dodges just as well. Never really liked Chevys but I wouldn't turn one down.
not bad for a 98 my dads got a 96 ram with 275000 miles on and it runs like a fucking champ, still got alot of power still packed in her, things a beast.
HP is not EVERYTHING, its got 340lbs of torque thats a hella lot, and there is something wrong with his engine obviously ... a 5.9 can do 7 seconds stock.. for a 4200lbs+ truck thats pretty quick
@1ownjoo2 ur pushing the 7 seconds stock thats a dakota the ram does it on average 8-10.. mine is in the 7-8 rang but i have traction problems or it would be quicker.. ive given a hemi a run for its money and even mustangs. from 60-100 i was on a 04 gts ass riding his bumper the entire way.. thought he could out run me.. and ive beaten my buddys 94 5.0
Well i drive a Jeep not a pickup, but the magnum engines are known for bad plenum gaskets which leaks oil into the system.. Causing poor mpg and poor engine performance.
Did you seriously expect to accelerate quickly?! It's a truck not a sports car, it has a heavy frame and designed for towing/hauling. It also has a 4x4 system so that's about 500 pounds extra weight there. You even lose acceleration with the suspension and tires as they are designed to flex much more than a sports car.
I miss that sound. Drove a 99 2500 4x4 service truck with the 360. Broke down quite a bit in the end, but that truck went through everything, even had it down a street flooded up to the window line with 33's on it. Alternator started to make a whine after but thats it.
Thats nothing to do with cylinder shut off, its all in the gearing, you sir, are a fucking idiot. and MDS or the multiple displacement system is 2008+ models only.
I love when 16 year old kids get on youtube thinking they know there stuff.
@drewglis no its not lmao, when your engine kicks down into just four cylinders it idles your motor down around 400 to 500 rpm, does mine every time, and thats why my 331 whp gets between 19 and 20 mpg on the highway when i baby it
@sappbigshotter it is physically impossible to change the rpms without changing gears unless you have 2 separate crankshafts or something...and im pretty sure thats not the case. ask a mechanic if you dont believe me.
@drewglis then tell me why my truck kicks down 400 rpm when my mds light comes on which means my truck is running on 4cyl?? when i put my truck on tow haul it turns off my mds and my truck runs normaly, but only gets around 16 mpg highway.
@sappbigshotter because mds comes on when your torque converter locks...trust me man. shutting cylinders off doesnt decrease engine speed, it doesnt work that way, it just means 4 cylinders arent firing.
@drewglis well, , it states that at a steady cruising speed above 40 mph the engine kicks off 1-4-6-7 cylinders. and can maintain reagular 180 degree firing on a v4, sais that when mds is engaged and the 4 cylinders are inactive that engine speed is decreased 300 to 400 rpm until the other 4 cylinders are activated.
@G3TLOOSHemi Thanks man that is good info. I found a 2003 Hemi for 8k with 110k miles by my house but it went quick cause I wasnt sure yet. I was going to get a Ford but they are so ugly. How many lugs is your truck?
You think the Hemi gets better MPG than the 5.9 in a 4x4 1500 Ram? Ive been looking to get one but I am torn between saving a little cash on the 5.9 or getting the Hemi. How much is the tow difference?
Look around youtube more dude, this video is the slowest 5.9 on here. And these older motors are beasts that have quite a bit of torque and last a long ass time. Of course a hemi is gonna win in a race though stock for stock it has much more hp and hell more torque to
i got a 1998 2500 v8 dodge ram quarter ton and the transcase went out on it and i got the whole trans case and transmission rebuilt by a 4x4 shop in califorinia and now it has all 1 ton transomission and 1 ton transcase it has and ot of tork now
@G3TLOOSHemi its just a 4.7L ext cab but its faster than this by far. i gotta find some one brave enough to record while i drive. unless i tape the camera to the steering wheel.
@G3TLOOSHemi it's only an automatic. If it was a manual it would've been faster, hell if he would've used 1st, 2nd, then drive he could've smoked too. My friend has one and it cooks.
grbberblusnake:: your ram prob would walk this one because it has the typical dodge tranns where the gears are to far apart. i think in 02 - 03 they put a new tranns on the rams which is where you get smoother shifts and a wider power band.
5,200 pounds its fast the hemi is faster than the 5.9l only by .060 secs faster in 0-60 time but the 5.9l would win in a tug of war match i know ive experienced it
yeah but even so a gmc or chevy can get to 60 quicker than that, its because dodge's engines lack a lot of top end power, look at the 1998 dodge ram road test on motortrend and you will see they said the same thing
the 5.2 only punches out about 235 horsepower, cuz i watched on motortrend, the durango and ram with the 5.2 only put out 235 hp and 275 ibs of torque the 5.9 yeah 300 is about right for that
@viperman8788 lol what are you talking about 5.2 is 215 hp and 5.9 is 250 hp and 330 feet of torque stock just go check it out before saying otherwise
My stock Quad-cab Ram with a Hemi weighs about 7,000 lbs and can get from 0-60 in a little less than 8 seconds... and it has 5 year old, worn tires. She can also tow 9,000 lbs.
A stock Quad Nissan Titan 5.6L V8 weighs about 6,000 lbs and can get from 0-60 in less than 7 seconds (its insanity), and tow about 8,000 lbs.
So yeah, while vehicles made for towing may not have the acceleration of a sports car, some of them can actually go pretty fast. And I'm not even mentioning modding them...
I'm talking about a 06 stock Titan, that gets 0-60 is 6.5-7.0 seconds. I don't go by what some two-bit jackass blog site says, I primarily go by what I've seen with my own two eyes.
Why does everyone have to hate on the other makes? I have a ford, a chevy, a dodge and a toyota, all 4x4s. Every truck ever made breaks down eventually.
Fast or not, the thing will always get horrible gas mileage.
But it's a damn tank. It's literally invincible.
I drove my 360 20 miles once with a broken water pump. Didn't even completely overheat.
Theses are the last trucks that actually felt and drove like trucks should. New trucks turn like cars and have all kinds of fancy schtuff in them

Give me an explanation ? The 360 and Magnum is a 40 year old engine.. Your comparing a newer engine to an older one ? If it was such a peice of shit why was it in production so long hmmm?? you wont be able to answer this.. Its one of the best, most reliable V8 engines every made. Even the current 5.7 Hemi's are Magnum block's
You an idiot

This is a really slow 5.9, you took off at 2 seconds and got to 60 at 14 seconds. This mean you did 12 seconds, 11 if you want to be generous. That means you are offically slower then a toyota prius .. lol
The way the shift points were at it seems like you took off in 2nd gear and not first, and the bad star at the beggining it still shouldnt be doing 12 seconds. My 5.9 Jeep does 0-60 in 7 seconds or a little under

i have a 98 360 durango whats all this about a plenum gasket??? trying to squeeze a little more power out of her any tips? already got air filter new wires and plugs and exhaust taken care of....
ddog0804 1 year ago
@ddog0804 plenum gasket is under the kegger (intake manifold) Kegger is alum, plenum plate is steel. The 2 pieces expand & contract at different rates (under hot/cold conditons) this can/will cause the factory cork gasket to shear & leak oil from the lifter valley into the intake. If you pop off your air filter (cai or factory box) & without mtr running open tb bores, use a flashlight & mirror to see inside. Thin film of oil is normal, anything more that & its probably leaking & needs replacing

@Runkleforskin, feel free to google me ;) Been known online as RM-Indy since the mid/late 90s. Im sure some of the pages from my website will come up as will posts that Ive made on dodgetalk, dodgeforum or bionicdodge, also moderator on dodgetruck & dragtruk though havent been on those for a few years. Pic I used on my channel here is my Magnum 360 w/30 over & 4" stroke. With the amount of polish & powder coating Ive done just to the motor alone, consider it well above "decent" as u put it ;)

Did you seriously expect to accelerate quickly?! It's a truck not a sports car, it has a heavy frame and designed for towing/hauling. It also has a 4x4 system so that's about 500 pounds extra weight there. You even lose acceleration with the suspension and tires as they are designed to flex much more than a sports car.

drewglis 1 year ago
@drewglis no its not lmao, when your engine kicks down into just four cylinders it idles your motor down around 400 to 500 rpm, does mine every time, and thats why my 331 whp gets between 19 and 20 mpg on the highway when i baby it
sappbigshotter 1 year ago
@sappbigshotter it is physically impossible to change the rpms without changing gears unless you have 2 separate crankshafts or something...and im pretty sure thats not the case. ask a mechanic if you dont believe me.
drewglis 1 year ago
@drewglis then tell me why my truck kicks down 400 rpm when my mds light comes on which means my truck is running on 4cyl?? when i put my truck on tow haul it turns off my mds and my truck runs normaly, but only gets around 16 mpg highway.
sappbigshotter 1 year ago
@sappbigshotter that is your torque converter locking. simple as that.
drewglis 1 year ago
@drewglis why would it do that only when my mds is on and not when in tow haul? none of my other rams did that but they didnt have mds.
sappbigshotter 1 year ago
@sappbigshotter because mds comes on when your torque converter locks...trust me man. shutting cylinders off doesnt decrease engine speed, it doesnt work that way, it just means 4 cylinders arent firing.
drewglis 1 year ago
@drewglis well, , it states that at a steady cruising speed above 40 mph the engine kicks off 1-4-6-7 cylinders. and can maintain reagular 180 degree firing on a v4, sais that when mds is engaged and the 4 cylinders are inactive that engine speed is decreased 300 to 400 rpm until the other 4 cylinders are activated.
sappbigshotter 1 year ago
@G3TLOOSHemi Thanks man that is good info. I found a 2003 Hemi for 8k with 110k miles by my house but it went quick cause I wasnt sure yet. I was going to get a Ford but they are so ugly. How many lugs is your truck?

grbberblusnake:: your ram prob would walk this one because it has the typical dodge tranns where the gears are to far apart. i think in 02 - 03 they put a new tranns on the rams which is where you get smoother shifts and a wider power band.

My stock Quad-cab Ram with a Hemi weighs about 7,000 lbs and can get from 0-60 in a little less than 8 seconds... and it has 5 year old, worn tires. She can also tow 9,000 lbs.
A stock Quad Nissan Titan 5.6L V8 weighs about 6,000 lbs and can get from 0-60 in less than 7 seconds (its insanity), and tow about 8,000 lbs.
So yeah, while vehicles made for towing may not have the acceleration of a sports car, some of them can actually go pretty fast. And I'm not even mentioning modding them...
