Easiest solution is to take it back to where you got it and see if they can get you a ram w/ a 4.7. In 2008 the 4.7 was changed and the HP was increased, so a swap is probably more trouble than it's worth.

$7500 for a 4.7? That's pretty intense, I saw someone buying a 6.1L Hemi for that price yesterday..
