Just guessing but I see some modifications in your future. Drop in? I seriously doubt it.

the v10 is really bad on fuel X2 Really bad on fuel. Like 8mpg on a good day. A friend of mine had bought a dodge pickup with the V-10 when they were new. He only had it for about 1 1/2 years , then traded it in on another pickup. I asked him why. He told me he was averaging 6mpg.

I had a 95 v-10. Mine averaged 11mpg. Strong engine though, and very smooth. Lots of power and torque. From what I was told, which might not be correct, was that it is basically a 360 lengthened with two more cylinders. I don’t know if the means the mounting is the same.

Seen a Honda S2000 once with a Viper engine in it , different engine than the V-10 in Dodge trucks. The guy called it a 'Sniper'
Crazy mod , tons and tons of work to get it to fit/run correctly.
