Can a 3.5 from a 2010 Chrysler 300 be swapped into my 06 Dodge charger 3.5? If so, what else would need to be changed?

Hello,

Those engines are not interchangeable.
These cars use same engine for 2006 and 2007 model year.
Also, the donor car will need to have G as the engine code.

Here is a basic engine replacement tutorial:

I have attached the engine replacement procedure below for your reference.

Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
