And would I need a new tranny? as my srt has 113,000 right now. And if anyone would be interested in the srt6 3.2 I will have left over afterwards
Any information would help a lot! Thanks!

What you are proposing IS NOT an engine swap, it's much more extensive and about $25,000 including the cost of the 5.5. ECU must be programmed to recognize the new motor, + numerous other related issues. Rudycompart (his company: Speeddriven) in Illinois has done the swap for several other Forum members such as amx1397 (Jim). You'll have to deliver the car to his location for the work, he's the best for this type of swap.
Good Luck.....
