Trying to find where my question needs to go and the search continues to give me nothing.
I've got a 98 Ram with the 8.0 V10. I love my truck, but I want to cram that engine into either a sleeper or a muscle car.
(My father-in-law wants the quad cab 4x4 body to stuff his bio-diesel into.)
I'm just wondering what Mopar products would be good to start looking at that would have the engine compartment I'd need for the 8.0.
Will it fit anything that originally could have come with the 440 or larger 426 HEMI? (Understanding Motor mounts and the rest would need to be custom, of course. I'm just looking for something that would have the space back into the 50's.)

If you have the where with all to make your quad cab into a donor for your father in laws bio buggy you might think about getting some vintage tin to put your V10 in.
Look around for one of the many old buggy's that had a straight 8. A Pontiac chieftain might be pretty sharp with a V10 in it.
With proper restoration it would most likely turn a few heads at the car show.
