    hillbilly's link is in my previous post...



    a lot of folks have talked about swapping in v8s over the years...i dont know but of maybe 1 person that actually did it...and he was here at one point but a complete douchey mc douchington so i dont think he comes around anymore

    im still not sure why so many people think its a good idea to get rid of such a reliable proven motor thats perfect for these trucks for some sort of v8

    I was thinking about doing the 3.4L>4.0L swap and all i'm getting is "don't do it" pretty much. My posting is right after your's on the 1st gen list.

    How do you like your K&N ram kit? Cost? Pics?

    X2 with kroggy on the SAS!!!

    the 4wd swap can actually be fairly financially cheap to do...but it requires a good bit of work and time...and can take FOREVER to round up the parts needed
