What to do?
So i'm building a 2wd "bugout" truck to get me to the hills when the zombies come. After researching turbo options, I've settled on an engine swap. So heres the million dollar question: 4.0 or 5.0?
I recently replaced the oem tranny- and ill bet a dollar to a doughnut a 4.0 will bolt right up. (manual btw). I will also bet a dollar to a doughnut that the 5.0 will not bolt up to said tranny. If it does, im shocked! Also id assume id have to change the motor mounts. I have 2000$ in the tranny /clutch. What to do?
