Either....Find a cheap take off c-list from someone who upgraded to a hemi.
Or... Grow a pair and get a hemi.

But in all seriousness. I have seen 3.8s online for under a grand with under 50k

In a couple of weeks when I get back from turnaround the 3.8 will be coming out of my 2011 and a new Hemi will be going in. Screaming Lizard will be doing the install which near Fort Worth. The motor has just over 21,000 and does not use any oil.
