Engine swap from a 96 to 2000 Dodge Ram 1500

Not going to be plug and play, you will need to transfer all the computer equipment to the 96 block including the manifolds, sensors, wiring harness, etc. You may have to manufacture some mounts, it will involve some work. The best thing you can do is find a 2000 engine with the same numbers and a warranty and that will be plug and play
