I was wondering if a 5.2 318 engine would mount to a dodge ram 1500 that originally has a 3.9 V-6? I know the transmission wouldnt work but other than that what should I do?

Well check out the plugs on the transmission. They might be diff. And then check out the drive line to see if it will mount up to the new trany. Will need motor mounts from/for the 318. Might need the radiator from the 318(depending on how big old one is)Will need the brain box from the 318(i do believe) and depending on the accelerator cable might need to replace that 2 but not sure u will know what the little things are as u go along.
