I'm not sure if youre 3.6L engine is positioned in the engine bay the same way as the original engine was, but if so, and your coolant is coming out from the center rear of the car, I would say it is the water pump failing, as I noticed that was the case when my water pump failed. If, however, the coolant was leaking from under the front of the right rear wheel, then I'd say the leak is coming from either a bad coolant cap or coolant tank (I noticed this when my coolant tank failed). I think with the 3.6L engine, however, the coolant tank is on the left rear side, so you would see leaked coolant there if the tank was the culprit.
