Yep, I would think the Gen 3 section would offer more info. We installed a 5.7 into a 57 Dodge station wagon, but we used the transmission that was attached to the motor, and we bought a stand alone wire harness from www.hotwireauto.com to make it work with the 5.7 EFI and electronic trans. That set up has been working great for over 4 years now. You are not planning on doing what we did, so our info won't help you much.

The con is your 518 transmission. I wouldn't waste one second trying to make that turd work with a Gen 3. Take the 545rfe or 8 speed that comes with the Gen 3 and never look back. (Grab every inch of wire and computers from your donor vehicle while you are at it.  ) I can't remember is your truck has the 318 or 360? If 318, maybe look at a 360 Magnum like "The Gas Tap" on Youtube has........

I belong to a very good group on Facebook called Dodge Truck Hemi Swap. You may want to check it out. Lots of experienced info.

I believe they did a swap in that year range of truck.

It's not perfect.
It's not correct.
It's not yours!
