If I got the hankering to put a v-8 in my '91 which one is easiest/best?

Ill also be back in the Philippines for a month this March where I could pick up a used DZL for it and ship it back prett cheap.

Which DZL from Mitsu will bolt right in? They are all over the P.I.

My truck is in such nice condition Im not afraid to put some dough into it and make it a better all around tow vehicle with more guts than the current 3.0

3.2 DID....

But you'd probably need to bring several of them back....
One for me, one for Curt, one for Charlie....... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />


Fasteddy's advice is occasionally sound...

I'm pretty sure the 2.8l 4M40 will be a bolt int replacement of the 3l V6, but you better check. Possibly the engine mounts are not the same.
