Thought that I would share. I have the engine out and sitting on my garage floor. Have an engine stand, but would like to use that for the brand new(remanufactured) engine from Promar Engines. Anyone heard anything good or bad about their engines? Anyways. I have everything off the old engine and laying in small piles on the garage floor. I haven't taken off the crankshaft pulley or the timing chain cover. The old engine had metal chunks, not shavings, actual bits of thin metal, kind of like a shredded pop can in the oil pan when I took it off. Mind you, this engine let go at about 89,000 miles due to minimal sludge in the engine. What advice do you all want to give me about putting the new engine? I plan on installing the transaxle/engine mounting bolts first, then figuring out how the main wiring harness goes on. I think I know where everything goes, but there were a few that I had to rush to get off the engine, because it was hanging in the air. How do I get whatever it is between the cylinder heads off? It looks like it goes into the right bank of the engine block, and it has a connector coming off of it. I have the lower intake manifold off, fuel rail off, injectors off, this is a connector below it. I'm not sure what that is, or how I'm going to get to it. Any suggestions?

Unplug the engine harness from the ECM and there are two connector,black in color on the front left on the engine to unplug.Leave the harness plugged in the engine.I do this making sure the crank sensor is unplugged and it saves time.I knever heard of them.I only trust Jasper, with the best warranty taking it to any Jasper dealer.Only things you have transfer to a Jasper reman are the valve covers,intake,exhaust mainfolds,crank pulley,certain knock sensors,mounts and flexplate and the water tube.Read some of the warranties of the others,you have to take it to one of their places for warranty work to be done.Another thing,put in synthetic oil from Mobil 1 which is recomended for the 2.7 and put in new plugs sticking with Champions over Bosch plugs.Bosch plugs are the worst plugs for Chrysler products.
