You'd have to find out the bolt patterns on the bell housing of the transmission you want to use and the bolt pattern of the 5-45RFE transmission.

You might try contacting Trans-adapt. They're one of the oldest tranny to engine adapter building companies out there

Neat swap. Let us know how it goes; some of us here have an interest in more than trucks!

Anyway, as I recall, Dodge has an install manual for the recently released 5.7 hemi crate-engines, one of which is not electronically controlled, that might be of help, if you can find the part# or have a genuinely helpful dealer with whom to work.

All the best.

If you are asking about having the automatic transmission from the 360, from the 90s being used, then I say you would be better off with the 545RFE over the 46RH because it has an extra overdrive gear ratio. So far, the 545RFE seems to have a good reputation. If I was going to use any transmission from the 90s, I would use the NV4500 transmission that they supposively used in the 2500/3500 versions of the HEMI. Good luck!
