Default 3.9L to 5.2L mag swap

Alright so i have read what you guys have said about this and i have decided this is what i am going to do. I have an 89 dakota 2WD with the 3.9. And i would like to know if a 5.2L 318 from a 94 jeep will mount in my truck. Also since jeep, dodge and chrystler interchange some tranmissions what other vehicles will i be able to find like an NV3500 5 speed or an 46RE auto? So i can check my salvage yard. And than what list of things am i going to need...PCM, harness etc...

Thanks guys

Alright so i did read your post and im sure it will fir but here is my question. I have a few engine i wanna look at but i dont know which to get. They all have roughly to same miles.

1.) the 94 jeep 318 mag, which i really want cuz the power

2. a 90 dakota 318 TBI w/ harness and ECM 126xxx miles very clean

3. a 318 from a 91 dodge 150 with harness and ECM w/ only 87xxx on her

4. and a 93 dodge 318 with like 130xx says it burn a little oil but runs good?

Help me lol i want to know which would be my best bet? If i get the mag engine from the jeep will i need a dodge harness and ECM or if it has a harness and ECM with those work? And i assume i will need a dodge oil pan for that one

Thanks guys
