It would be cool to do a Viper engine transplant, but it would have to be in a Dodge product. A challenger would be cool.
People may not like it but have you ever seen a well built LSx engine in a fox body notch Mustang? or a RX7, or a 240SX? It makes for a seriously fast car.

Unless you just have money to burn it would be kinda pointless to put a Dodge V10 into a 5th gen. A well built 454 LSX will make just as much if not more power, cost less and have no pricey conversion parts.

Personally, I'd go with the LSX454R from GM.
