Does anybody know the actual diamensions of 3.5 V6 and the 5.7 Hemi? I know both are offered in the 300C. I have a Prowler, and kinda tired of the lack of performance. It's not bad, but I would like more. And really no bolt on performance mods for the Prowler or 3.5. So will it fit ? Anybody know anybody that has done this swap ?
Thanks

How would you bolt in the 5.7 to the trans? Don't Prowlers use those funky transmission/rear diff combos? I thought their trans was pretty much like a fwd trans that sat back at the rear axle and had a driveshaft that went from the crank to the trans input shaft? I have no idea what provisions the 3.5 uses to accomplish this, but I would not be surprised if they are 3.5L specific parts. I would guess a lot of custom work would be done to make the prowler's floor pan accept a conventional rwd trans. But I'm interested to hear what others have to say.

I still think a nice blower sticking out of the hood of a prowler would look awesome.

Don't think a 5.7 will fit w/o some major surgery. That is the reason a v8 was never offered in the prowler. Paxton makes/made a Novi2000 supercharger kit and headers for the prowler. http://www.paxtonauto.com/pdf/manuals/4809629.pdf
