FAQ on engine swap ? 200

posted by someone claiming to be drinking on Fri Apr 25 03:25 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I have recnetly aquired a '79 245 body in purrfect (nearly) condition. It's a manual. I'm wondering which engine(s) are possible to swap, which would be the most desirable, and which would be the most impoossible. Is there an FAQ out there to help me locate the best scenereo for this project? I don't need a pile of project engines lying about an already crouded shop! By the way, the previous owner ststes that the crank was bad, and the oil ran out, so the current engine is shot. Also, apparantly the syncro's were grinding so the tranny is suspect as well.

Do not go serious on this guy. He is trying to take the piss on a post of mine from a few days ago.

you can always do the V-8 swap. I'm considering trying a b234 engine swap in
the future.
