Default Pics of Hemi

I just took some pics of the hemi and transmission. I'll post it as soon as I can get the adapter for the memory card......lol. I would like to be able to verify that this is indeed a 2011 hemi and trans out of an 2011 Jeep commander if possible, eventhough it probably don't matter seeing how money has already been exchanged...

If you call up Bursville or AEV and tell them you've got a motor and trans and looking to do a swap soon. Then ask them to help you confirm, they're good people at both places, they'll walk you through.

Thanks for the advice, I'll give them a call with some of the numbers I've pulled off of the engine and trans and maybe they can cross reference them for me to give me some peace of mind, but like I said earlier it's not like it matters now that the transaction has taken place. Just have to work with what I've got now .

I immediately called and went to check it out and talked the guy down to $1,000.00. I picked it up today on my trailer and drove off quickly....lol.

I'll take some pics of the engine and transmission. I'll need some help on what's the best kit and method of putting this beast in my JK. I've already noticed that I'll need to do some work on this , some parts are broken and the wiring harness has been cut in a few different places. So I'll need some expertise on this project from start to finish. But I'm on my way to more power and joining the HEMI club
Holy crap! That's only about 1.5 hours from my house! Im not even in the market but I would have bought it for that price!
