YES! it is a 2009 Dodge Ram, and I found out it's a very bad idea to use 2009 + as its a variable cam and difficult to get the whole system to work correctly even with a donner. This is according to Randy Bouchilon "you can not run or manage the engine due to it being a VCT engine. You will need to purchase a 2007 or earlier NON VCT engine.....MDS engines are ok, you don't use that section anyway. We do sell the flexplate that will work with the torqueflite which does not require an adapter..........."
So....I will just use what I have, nothing wrong with what I have anyway. Herb helped me with all the info I need for a conversion and I saved it all in a file for the future. One day I'd like to do it. But for now I will be happy with what I have.
Next hurdle is the seats, still haven't found ones I like that will fit. I'll keep looking. If I could find a 300 Letter car buckets and console I'd do it. but that's not easy.
I hope she is painted in the next 3 weeks.

any updates on the engine/tranny?
I was
working on mine today, I took 3 tail light bezels, 3 reverse light bezels and
my outside remote mirror apart and droped them off at the chrome place near
the house. When I get Donalds wing window parts I will take them with my
wing windows, turn signal bezels, and headlight bezels to get done and pick up
the tailights. It was a good day on for the car. I can't wait till
she gets painted so I can start putting her backtogether again.
