2000 w/6spd. From what I can tell this is the HO 245hp engine? Is this correct? I'm trying to buy one from a 2001, not sure of the trans, but the guy says it's a HO, but he said it's a 235hp engine. Can anyone tell if this matters? My local Dodge dealer said there is two reman. numbers? Will either work on my truck? Thanks.

look at the tag on the engine it will tell you or they should be able to tell by your vin #

 

I'm going to say it's a SO, don't think the HO came out till 01. there was some 6 speeds with 1 1/4 input shafts made in 2000 and I think 1999

 

The pumps are NOT interchangable,make sure you have the right one.
As far as I know the "HO" was only in the 01' with 6 speed.
A 235 is not "HO" you get another 10hp for the aggrivation of dealing with the "HO"
I know I got one,and the pistons are not the same either....
