All these size engines will fit, but what ever way you go with you will need to change the tranny, some of the wiring and the ECM. If I were you I would just put the same engine back in.3.7 L magnum V6, 4.7 L Magnum V8, 5.7 L Hemi V8, 5.9 L Magnum V8, 5.9 L Cummins diesel I6, 6.7 L Cummins diesel I6, 8.0 L, Magnum V10, 8.3 L Viper V10

Guruxr7zc those years are not interchangeable just because they're both Dodges and you think that they can that's really cute. You have a phone use Google ask Google what engines will interchange with the year that you have and I bet you it'll tell you the answer which is way better than a girl telling you the answer.

Yes Brandon it does anytime you take yours size engine out and put a different one in you're going to have to swap that and probably the wiring harness to just FYI

Guruyy66wd I think you'd have to give us more information than that like the size of the engines possibly.

Guruyvzkp, what like your brother right up above you you have to give us more information like the years of the vehicles it's not just willy-nilly up here but maybe you can think like that other guy and say Well they're both dodges.

Guruwjyzn they have this new thing called Google all the kids are doing it, but my guess would be the exact same size engine that came out of it would be the one that you can put back in it and you know you can get it from other cars and everything it's kind of cool but you have to do that Google thing or just know but that seems really hard for a lot of you on here.

GuruL4RFS so my 2005 1500 magnum that had about 100,000 on it was what I thought was "misfiring" bc once in a blue moon it'd throw a code for cylinder #7 (p2320) but I brought it to a dodge dealership and it had low comp in that cylinder and it wasn't a valvespring broken.... so do a comp test on whatever cylinder is throwing codes and pray it's not done for. But I dont see why it wouldnt work to swap motors. Body style looks the same but someone on her might tell you otherwise.
