Hey everyone, I'm new here and just got my magnum a few months ago and love it but I want to change it up a bit. I was wondering if I could swap my 5.7L V6 for a hemi V8 just to give it more power. My Magnum is a 2006 set I believe with rwd.

There is a detailed thread here somewhere where someone successfully did the V6 to V8 swap.

I am confused. The 5.7L is a V8. Did you mean the 3.6L? You can find crates that will bolt right up.

You do mean Pentastar 3.6 High Output. To 5.7 Hemi correct?
If so you need to upgrade brakes, sway bar and bushings cap for 1-1/4" from 1". New exhaust from headers to match new configuration. Upgrade your transmission. And swap out you ECU for a V8's programming.
