Tell me about it... I took a look at my lap then blew my engine; and here I am asking a million questions about Rod Length and if I'm average. ;)
Putting a complete Hellcat system in a donor LX for example is easier than one might think.

Also...bigger is not better...especially if ya can't use it all / properly.

My installers said they have dropped a hellcat engine into a charger of similar year aswell. Looks like anything can be done at this point.

Happy to say that the 6.4l swap into my 06 300c is complete and amazing. It is a 2018 stock 6.4l motor with my original nag1 trans along with my original rear end. Also it has the stock SRT exhaust. Much plans going forward including 6 piston brake swap, 3.92 getrag rear end and lmi true cold air intake which I have everything for just need the time. Can anyone help me upload a video here?

Very nice indeed. How did the tuning and computer work out?

Thanks guys, it was tuned by Chris Squier at hotwireauto.com Required was a 2009 5.7l pcm with a stock 6.4l tune, along with my vin written in. Also some settings changed regarding differences due to car being from 2006. It runs flawlessly and all the electronics work..its like the motor was in there from the factory. I have the 8 speed, hp70 transmission aswell but not sure how to put that in yet.

Contact Sound German Automotive in Seattle. The harness is $1000 and you need the electronic shifter from an 8HP70 car (if you don't have it already).

Nice. Did they have to pull the radiator and AC condenser.
There was alot involved in the swap. Several accessories had to be changed. Really it wasn't too bad though. If you'd like to know what all it took then pm me.

Any opinions on if I should remove the HemiC badge on the sides and put these 392 hemi badges on? Was planning on deleting the emblems on the truck lid along with adding a wicker bill.

I'm happy to announce that a 392 with 4k miles is being installed currently and will be tuned after. The srt exhaust is also being mounted. I'll be storing the 8 speed trans, driveshaft and rear cradle until that swap is developed foolproof. Vvt will be retained as well as the active intake manifold. I'm very excited, this will be quite the unique build. I will post pics and a video once running.

Was the SRT exhaust from the vehicle the 392 came from. I am doing the same. Need to sort out an exhaust to fit the 392 exhaust flange and suit the 2006 300c body. Lots of companies want to do custom exhaust for $$$, but if I can use stock, would be much cheaper.

Weld on hangers in a couple of places. Fits like a glove. It was the stock 392 exhaust from a charger so the tips fit in the bumper cutouts.

Thank alot. I haven't been on here much lately as it feeds the addiction. With my career picking up along with recent engagement and talks of babies.. turning wrenches has been put on the side. I daily the car, shes a beast.

The guys I bought the motor package from specialize in mopars and have done several of these swaps. They use AMP for tuning which is where I'd want to take it anyway. Johan will most likely be tuning the car. The motor and exhaust will be stock at first until I start doing bolt ons. I could probably use some suggestions as most of my research has been into 5.7s and 6.1s..not 6.4s. First things first will be legmaker true cold air and a catch can.

Give us the full details? What motor mounts are used? PCM? Headers or manifolds? Inquiring minds want to know everything that's involved in this swap. Lol

Very very impressed!!!
