SRT8 Tuning specialists in the UK ?

[DArby_UK]

Not strictly a 300C question as mine is a Jeep, but we all share the same power plant.

I purchased my SRT8 with a unfitted cam from the previous owner - i'm keen to get it fitted, but struggling to find a company knowledgeable in the 6.1 Hemi engine.

As there seems to be more 300C SRT's than Jeeps i thought i might ask the collective wisdom here and see if anyone has any positive experience of UK engine builders/tuners.


Thanks

When you say unfitted cam,do you mean you have an aftermarket cam that you want fitting or an engine in bits that needs a replacement cam or the engine needs a cam due to wear??

Thats quite a big job.....expensive as the cam is buried deep in the engine,cant you just predator or Trinity it....be loads cheaper

Yeah it may well be a non starter - i already have Trinity, CAI and Exhaust - next step for most of the US guys is cam. Might just be easier to be satisfied with a 4.2sec 0-60 especially as its my daily drive....

May be if my numbers come up

Well,engines gotta come out,heads off,all lifters out,etc etc etc........lotta lotta money,I would be over the moon with 4.2 to 60 mate.....lol

I shall keep it in the box along with all the other 'good ideas' i have in the garage the wife doesnt know about

quite a few owners of 5.7 & 6.1 have fitted their own having never tried anything that difficult before. Tuning via email tunes having finished (I've done this...its pretty dynamic - the tuner gets readings from you & modifies the tune within hours....more tests more tunes, until satisfied). It appears that the only thing thats difficult is time - its a weekends work or more. I'll pm you some extras
