Dodge Ram Engine Problem

I have a question I need answered rather quickly. My son put a hole in the oil pan, and never told. Well he continued to drive it and now the motor is shot. The truck is a 2000 Dodge 2500 4X4, I have a "donor" truck that was damaged in a tornado. It is a 1995 Dodge 1500 2WD Laramie, it has the 5.9L engine in it. Could I possibly swap the 1995 5.9L engine into the 2000 Dodge?

We recommend direct fit parts. WHen you change things, often times there are problems.
