I can't find any definite answers to this question but when I swap out the 318 to 360, my dad was wondering if we could put my old 318 into his truck that has a 4.7. Now I'm wondering if the motor mounts, trans, and what not would work?
Why would you swap a 4.7 for a 5.2? The 4.7 is better on fuel and has more power. Considering a 4.7 never came in a second gen, nothing, or slim to nothing would work I'd bet. Its a completely different motor.
My dad was wondering. His 4.7 is lacking in mileage, and was thinking about the 5.2 swap. I didn't think it woulda been worth it to swap engines and everything.
I think some of you who say its completely different are missing the picture here...
First off, of course it would fit! they put 4.7 Liter motors into Durangos that housed 318s & 360s! Also they put 360's into 03 Rams that had a 4.7 liter as the other option. I think you'll see the pattern I'm getting at ;-)
