    Weird engine problem

    I got no lights of any kind when the engine cut out and restarted. Dodge just looked at it and found no primary or secondarey codes. Checked all of the sensors and found zip. Has anyone lost a fuel pump yet and if so what was it like.

    Need a new motor ?

    Possibly to to numerous mechanical over-revs due to a crappy tranni ,Some large pieces of metal were attached to my drain plug.It is the opinion of the shop that I skip the rebuild and go for a new "crate motor".If this is the best way to go, whom do I go to for the best deal besides Ebay ?
