Does anyone know? Basically, if I buy a 6.4 Hemi truck instead of a cummins, can the transmission be replaced if need be with a 68?

I'm buying a new 4500 with the 6.4/ Aisin as66rc tranny. That may be the easiest swap.
With enough money, anything is possible.
That is interesting. I would love to read a comparison between the two transmissions once you get the 4500.
All three automatics have a one-piece case, electronic control, two stage hydraulic pump (which shuts the secondary side at higher speeds, for efficiency), and similar valve bodies. They all use three planetary gearsets, three driving clutches, three holding clutches, and an overrunning clutch. The 66 uses some parts derived or taken from the 545 (mainly in the front: torque converter and pump; overdrive, underdrive, and reverse clutches; and valve body), and some derived or taken from the 68 (low/reverse clutches, planetary gearsets, and 2C clutch).
