yeah people tell me that to and mine needs alot of upgrades cuz i have absolutley no get up and go right now but changing my gears will help that some. ya find any good solid upgrades let me know
i got the trans rebuilt i had the auto and the shop put something in it so i have more pressure on my gears they said it would give me alot more fluid in my lines and it would make the truck shift like a standered it helped the truck shifts alot sooner i was thinking about swaping to the 360 but im going to stay with the 318 and get it worked to much extra for the swap and i can get all the power i need from the 318
@TPoland8 I got a solid upgrade for you, if you intend on keeping your 318, you might as well go down to 31s, or 32s, gears will help, but not like talking bout. I'd suggest a 360, pushing 4.11s or 4.56s, 35i is a lot of tire to be pushing. The 318, unless built BEAUTIFULLY is no where near enough motor to push a stock 1500 dodge, sport or not, hence the infamous transmission problems.
@TPoland8 And to be honest, the money you'll be dumping into the 318 would prolly be more than the 360, find you a used 360 junk yard or not, rebuild it, that'll put you around 1300 - 1500 $ guesstimation, and roll with it, provided you have the money, and you can swap yourself. If not then forget I mentioned it.
what is your lift set up is it body or what i have a 01 dodge sport 1500 and looking to put 35s on it and where did you get that brush guard for the sport and how much was it
its a fabtech 5.5" suspension lift and i got the grill guard new like 2 years ago for 300 dollars at a area truck store. But its a westin sportsman one piece
i just have the muffler takin out and a y pipe in its place and yeah the cat is still on. i got a programmer in it as well but it still does pretty poor with mpg i get 9 in town on a good day and usually around 13 on the highway
what kind of straight pipe set up do you have, did u just take the muffler out and put a y-pipe there or are you running true duals, and do you still have the cats on there? also one more question, what kinda of gas mileage are you getting?
how do you like the hypertech programmer?

last year i put it in the truck pull and pulled a 254 with 3.55 gears on a stock 318
loc2183 2 years ago
really? what did u place in the pull?
TPoland8 2 years ago
@loc2183 I honestly don't believe that shit for one second.
I have a 1996 Dodge 5.9L Magnum with 4:56 gears an its 4x2 i can't even pull that far with a sled dude...
Your full of crap enough said.
My 99 Diesel can pull farther than that for sure...
But to TPolan Nice truck bro. I hope you still own this beast!
2nd for life man. Thats the only truck I will ever drive except for my 2005 Dodge Power Wagon. I love that truck.

@SoCoMx309 the diff being yours is a 2 wheel drive mines a 4 no matter what gearing you have a 2 wheel drive cant pull shit on dirt
loc2183 1 year ago
@loc2183 You dont think so?
Then why do they have a 2wd class then?
Ever see anyone do a full pull in a 2wd?
Then you never been to a truck pull.
