I may be wrong but I think the 2.5 dakota block is different from the fwd car block. If I remember correctly, the car block will not bolt up to a rwd trans like the dakota block did. (Dakota 2.5's were all manual trans I think)You may be able to put the car internals in the truck block, but a custom flywheel or flex plate would need to be fabricated, to work with a custom bell housing. sounds like an extremely expensive swap.
