I remember on the vca forum there is a lot of topic on the gen 3 vs gen 4 blocks and the differences between them. I don't fully comprehend it all but you gearheads would. Hahahaha
Not sure which version the 05 is

Yes he the expert!
Shit pistons. The rings are too close to the top and break out. Supposedly good at 650hp with a supercharger or 700hp for street use. Yeah na no way. I would say this is the second time it has happened in this truck.
I remeber hearing about that back on here a long time ago .. with warnings of using NOS and something about Hennessy and turbos .. Hennessy had a very bad reputation on here back then l

Not you - Hennessy hahahaha
I think I got the Jist lol
Gen IV Viper engines use (2) drive-by-wire throttle bodies (not compatible with your ECU), different Intake and Exhaust manifold spacing and the Gen IV Heads wont directly bolt onto a Gen III Block.
You CAN get just about anything to work with anything else, with enough time and money.
The Gen III engines have some minor differences. If you find a Gen III from a Quad-Cab (that used 2 Knock-Sensors under the Intake Manifold), that isn’t a deal breaker. The Crank-Position sensor is in a different place on the Quad-Cabs (with an automatic) than it is on a regular cab. That isn’t a deal breaker either.
The simplest/cheapest solution is a Gen III engine from a Regular Cab (high-miler’ or not) you can rebuild properly to last a LONG time.
A block and crank is all you really need but may be harder to source.
My 2 cents.
Good luck.
