* Engine Mounts: The 1974 360 will have completely different engine mount locations than the 1995 Ram's 3.9L or even later 5.9L engines. You'd need entirely custom engine mounts fabricated.
* Transmission: The 1974 engine likely used a different transmission than the 1995 Ram. Adapting the transmission and bellhousing would be a very complex task, potentially requiring custom fabrication.
* Computer Control: The 1974 360 is a carburetor engine with no electronic controls, whereas the 1995 Ram uses a computer-controlled fuel injection system. Wiring harnesses, sensors, and the entire control system would need significant modification or replacement, likely requiring a stand-alone aftermarket engine management system.
* Exhaust System: The exhaust manifolds and system will not match. A completely custom exhaust system would be required.
* Accessory Drive: The accessory drive (alternator, power steering pump, etc.) will be different and incompatible.
* Size and Weight: While both are V8s, the 1974 engine's dimensions and weight may be different enough to create clearance issues with the frame, body, or other components.
In short, while it's *theoretically* possible with extensive custom fabrication and engineering, it's not practical. The cost and difficulty would far exceed the value of using the older engine. Swapping in a later-model 5.9L Magnum engine (from roughly 1994-2003) would be a far simpler and more feasible undertaking.
