Yeah, why not? It's the same engine that's in our trucks. You just need an adapter or change the trans. I'm sure you've already been thinking about that if you bought the engine.

well so far im winning it and dose it have the same bolt pattern as the dodge or will it have a diffrent one????

The pattern is on the block. There is an adapter plate that bolts to the block. The plate on the bus probably won't be the same as a dodge. I think they are rated by number, SAE #1, #2, #3, etc. I'm not sure what number the dodge plate is, or if it seperate.
