yes. It will go in just like the SRT one. You do need to some mods to get it to fit (motor mounts, hood mods, and such)

I have a carbon fiber hood would that matter? and what kind of mods would i need to do to the motor mounts? upgrade them?

I honestly don't know about the carbon fiber hood. I know you need the power buldge hood to get the cams to fit.

There is all the information. I just noticed that you have an ATX? if so I do believe you will have to swap that out for a 5-speed from a 1st gen.
