    I was wondering if someone could be so kind as to tell me what issues Im about to get myself into swapping a Californa Emmisions 2.7L with a Federal Emissions 2.7L. Check engine lights etc..? Is it worth the pain or should I just find another engine? Thanks in advance.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    The engines are the same as far as I know. The ignitions will be different though. You'll have to keep the coils and such that are in the truck now and put them on the donor motor.
