Aluminum cylinder heads combine with
hemispherical combustion chambers
for outstanding airflow leading to
indispensable power and torque.
Variable Valve Timing (VVT) improves
performance and also contributes to outstanding
torque output over a large rpm range.
Dual-ignition technology—two spark plugs
per cylinder—increases peak power and
torque, reduces exhaust emissions, helps
improve fuel efficiency and smoothes the idle.
10,000-mile oil change intervals help
keep costs-of-ownership in check.
Standard on Ram 2500/3500 SRW. The credentials of this extraordinary gas
powerplant rank as ideal examples of technical proficiency and the limits
of engineering, for the properties of the hemispherical engine head are
all about power. Since its introduction, the varied applications of the
hemispherical head have included WWII­era prototype aircraft (and even
some tank applications), and attained unprecedented dominance during
the distinctively American muscle car era. Today, with its refinement
reaching new levels of fuel efficiency and power, it’s the obvious choice as
standard engine for the 2014 Ram Heavy Duty pickups.
In Ram Heavy Duty models, this iteration of the 5.7L HEMI V8 delivers
every pound­foot of torque you need—with unexpected and perhaps
even surprising fuel­efficient performance. Combined advantages here
include VVT, outstanding transfer cases for 4x4 applications and the
ideal transmission: the 66RFE 6­speed automatic. All work together to
contribute to the HEMI V8 legacy: outstanding performance with fuel­
sipping operation.
+ The competitive fuel efficiency generated
by the 5.7L hEMI V8 accompanies
serious performance capability. For
single-rear-wheel models, the 5.7-liter
hEMI V8 delivers incredible standard
power and torque compared to other
V8 engines.
+ The incorporation of iDFSO (interactive
Deceleration Fuel Shut-Off) adds to the
fuel-efficient performance of the 5.7L
hEMI V8. iDFSO turns off the flow of fuel
during deceleration, with no noticeable
change in engine performance—a real-
world and bottom-line advantage to
this powerplant.
transMissions:
The 5.7-liter HEMI V8 is mated to the
long-proven 66RFE 6-speed automatic, a component that
exceeds typical demands for anticipated towing and hauling.
The transmission features driver-adaptive shifting, three
multiple clutch packs and dual filters on a dual-stage pump; an
independent lubrication cooler on the 66RFE ensures ample
pressures under all driving and load conditions.

The two transfer cases utilized by the Ram Heavy Duty models
more than meet the need. The BorgWarner BW 44­46 transfer
case features responsive electronic shift­on­the­fly engineering,
with three operating ranges, plus Neutral.
The manually activated BW 44­47 transfer case features three
operating ranges, plus Neutral. Both of these impressive units
offer a low­range reduction ratio of 2.64:1—an ideal ratio when
off­road in a slow rock­climbing situation, or when using Ram
tough 4x4 capability on steep grades. It’s all about capability and
performance and, in both scenarios, Ram Heavy Duty pickups
are designed to excel.
