Default Engine Swap

Is it possible to do an Engine Swap with a 3.7 to the 5.7 Hemi?

I asked this already. I was told that the GetRag transmission we have on the V6 would not be able to handle the power of the darkside . . ., got sidetracked, the power of the HEMI. This is why the 2500 RAM HEMI comes with a different manual 6 speed tranny. I think they called it the Mercedez Benz something something. It could be true, I dont know. I wont try it anytime soon, maybe after the 7/70K. Or maybe by then I be making serious dough and can buy a 6.7L HEMI with 4.56 gears and not worry about gas. Or maybe the new trucks will run on nuclear fission where we throw our garbage into the engine and becomes fuel. NAHHHH, the oil companies would never let that happen.

Well it would sure as hell take alot of time and money. The G-56 6-speed is used in the 2500s. It is possible to do this though.
