Default Engine swap in 2007 charger

I’m in need of some help. I picked up a 2007 charger r/t awd hemi. The engine blew an hour into my drive back home. I decided to keep the car and put in a new engine. I found an engine from a 2009 (was told it’s a 2007 as well) for a good deal. I have it all bolted up and plugged in but can’t get it to fire. I’m new to the hemi world and I can’t really find and good direction to go next. The car cranks but won’t fire. I have fuel and good compression. Everything seems to working as it should other three it not actually running 🤦🏻‍♂️ Any thoughts on my next step would be a great help. Thanks.

Do you have spark? Did you use the old PCM or a new one?

You're trying to use an eagle 5.7 in a vehicle not designed to run it.
