The Hemi Crossfire was done several years ago and appeared at the Chrysler National meet in Carlisle by a guy from Virginia. If memory serves me, it was a 5.7 Chrysler HEMI out of a Charger, that included the front-end clip, mated to the Crossfire. The HEMI Crossfire was originally an Inferno Red 2004 model. The Crossfire was a Salvage Title car, so no loss was incurred. It just didn't look correct and sat higher in the front end and the wheels stuck out further than the stock configuration in the front do to the clip exchange. The owner apparently sold the car to an unsuspecting buyer.
The Mercedes V8 swaps have been a much better, successful alternative and worked much better than the Chrysler Hemi as a choice. There are numerous threads and now a dedicated section on this forum to engine swaps in the SRT6 section.
Good luck in your mission....
