Why Buy a 2006 Dodge Engine from Auto Power Source

2006 is the year the Charger came back as a four-door, alongside the Magnum on the same LX platform — so the same four engines (2.7L, 3.5L, 5.7L HEMI, 6.1L SRT8) appear under two nameplates on different accessory drives. All 53 live listings carry the displacement, the VIN eighth digit and the body or cab the unit came out of.

The 5.7L HEMI is the page’s trap: in 2006 it is catalogued on three eighth-digit codes — VIN 2 (Durango, Magnum, Ram 1500 Reg/Quad Cab), VIN D (Ram 1500 Mega Cab, Ram 2500/3500) and VIN H (Charger R/T RWD). The long block is shared but the accessory drive, brackets and front cover are not, so a 5.7L bought on displacement alone can arrive and not bolt up.

The two 8.3L V10s are the other one to get right. The Ram 1500 SRT-10 engine is VIN H; the Viper SRT-10 engine is the aluminium 10-505, VIN Z — different block, different everything. We list them separately and never substitute one for the other.

2006 is also the last full year of the 5.9L Cummins ISB 24-valve in a Dodge pickup before the 6.7L arrived for 2007, and the last year of the T1N Sprinter and its 2.7L inline-five. Every unit is compression-tested, leak-down checked where applicable, and inspected by an ASE-certified technician.

Terms are the same as on anything else we ship: a warranty included with every unit, a 30-day money-back window, free continental US shipping, and written confirmation of the exact unit against your VIN before you pay.

Your 2006 Dodge Engine Options: Compared

Most 2006 Dodge owners face four real choices when the engine fails:

← Swipe sideways to see all columns →
Option Cost Reliability Warranty Fitment Match
Used OEM (this collection) $$$ Best Value High — tested Included VIN-matched
New OEM (dealer) $$$$$ 2-4× more High Manufacturer Exact
Aftermarket / Reman $$$$ Varies 6-12 mo May adapt
Junkyard $ Cheapest Unknown None DIY

Tested used OEM hits the sweet spot — same engineering as new, fraction of the cost.

2006 Dodge Engine Buying Guide

5 things to verify before buying a used 2006 Dodge engine:

  1. Settle which 5.7L HEMI you need first. 2006 catalogues the 5.7L on three eighth-digit codes — VIN 2, VIN D and VIN H — differing in accessory drive, brackets and front cover rather than in the long block. Durango, Magnum and Ram 1500 Reg/Quad Cab take VIN 2; Ram 1500 Mega Cab and Ram 2500/3500 take VIN D; the Charger R/T takes VIN H. Buy on the code.
  2. Never cross the two 8.3L V10s. The Ram 1500 SRT-10 runs the iron 8.3L on VIN H. The Viper SRT-10 runs the aluminium 10-505 on VIN Z. They share a displacement and nothing else — no block, no heads, no mounts. Read the eighth digit and treat them as two unrelated engines, because that is what they are.
  3. Check the Dakota 4.7L High Output balancer split. The 4.7L High Output (VIN J) is listed two ways on the 2006 Dakota: with a dual-mass balancer and cast-iron crank, and without the balancer on a forged steel crank. Not interchangeable as a unit — confirm which build your truck left the factory with.
  4. Know that the Charger and Magnum share engines but not brackets. Both take the 2.7L, 3.5L, 5.7L and 6.1L, but rear- and all-wheel-drive versions differ in front accessory layout, and one Magnum SRT8 row is catalogued VIN 3 where every other 6.1L reads VIN W. Give us the nameplate and drivetrain, not just the displacement.
  5. Confirm the match with your own VIN before you order. Your VIN settles the engine code, drivetrain and build split in one step. Text it to +1-307-441-5554 and we will confirm in writing exactly which unit fits your vehicle before you pay.

Our ASE-certified technicians verify every one of these points against your VIN before any unit ships.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many 2006 Dodge engines do you have in stock?
53 active units as of 7 October 2026, counted live from our own inventory rather than estimated. The families table shows how they split across engine codes and the model tiles across nameplates. The number moves as units sell.
Why are there three different 5.7L HEMI codes on 2006?
Because the accessory drive is not shared. VIN 2 covers the Durango, Magnum and Ram 1500 Regular and Quad Cab; VIN D the Ram 1500 Mega Cab and Ram 2500/3500, on a heavy-duty front layout; VIN H the rear-drive Charger R/T. The long blocks are close relatives, but brackets, front cover and pulleys differ enough that crossing codes means parts changes.
Is the Ram SRT-10 8.3L the same engine as the Viper 8.3L?
No. The Ram 1500 SRT-10 uses the iron-block 8.3L, eighth digit H; the Viper SRT-10 uses the aluminium 10-505, eighth digit Z. Different block material, heads and mounting. We list them separately and never substitute one for the other.
What is the difference between the 4.7L VIN N, VIN P and VIN J?
VIN N and VIN P are standard 4.7L PowerTech V8 calibrations; VIN J is the High Output build, with different heads, higher compression and its own calibration. On the 2006 Dakota the High Output splits again: dual-mass balancer with cast-iron crank, or no balancer with a forged crank.
Is 2006 the last year of the 5.9L Cummins in a Dodge pickup?
It is the last full model year. The 5.9L ISB 24-valve common-rail ran through 2006, with the all-new 6.7L taking over for 2007. A 2006 Ram 2500 or 3500 diesel is the 5.9L, eighth digit C — we hold six, across 4x2, 4x4, AT and MT.
What engine is in the 2006 Dodge Sprinter?
The 2.7L inline-five turbodiesel. 2006 is the final year of the first-generation T1N Dodge Sprinter before the NCV3 arrived for 2007 with a 3.0L V6 diesel, so the 2.7L I5 does not interchange forward. Sprinter listings carry no VIN eighth-digit code because the catalogue assigns none.
Some listings just say “Alternate Engine” with no displacement. What are those?
Rows our catalogue received without a displacement or VIN code — two on 2006, a Charger and a Stratus. The units are real; only the label is incomplete, so we hold them as their own line rather than guessing a family.
Do I get a warranty, and what happens if the engine does not fit?
Every unit ships with a warranty included and a 30-day money-back window, and continental US shipping is free. Before you pay we confirm in writing which engine code and build your VIN calls for. Call 1-877-313-8995, text +1-307-441-5554 or email info@autopowersource.com.

Our 6-Step Inspection & Shipping Process

Every 2006 Dodge engine we ship has been through these six steps:

1. VIN-Matching
We match the donor VIN to your VIN to confirm engine code, generation, emissions calibration, and drivetrain fit.
2. Tested & Verified
ASE-certified technicians compression-test every cylinder and run leak-down evaluation on engines. Transmissions are Shift-Tested through all gears.
3. Noise & Smoke Verification
Units are run to verify normal mechanical sound and clean operation — catches internal wear static tests miss.
4. Visual Inspection
Every accessible component is inspected: turbos, manifolds, valve covers, housings, accessories, sensor harnesses.
5. Photograph & Catalog
Multi-angle photos sent to you BEFORE we ship for your approval.
6. Palletize & Ship
Strapped on a heavy-duty wooden pallet, shipped via freight at no charge.

Our Photos-Before-Shipment Guarantee

Before any engine leaves our warehouse, we send you multi-angle photographs. You approve. If you do not approve, you get every dollar back — no questions, no restocking fees, no return freight charges. On top of 30-day money-back and the warranty included with every unit.
