Engine swap

Asked by Mimito Sep 13, 2016 at 10:54 AM about the 2004 Dodge RAM 1500 SLT Quad Cab LB RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2004 ram 1500 and it needs a new motor.
My mechanic got a 2011 motor at a great price.
Can he simply swap the motors using my flywheel
and crank sensor, also using my intake?
