Best option is 3.4. Wiring, welding, cutting, ect is all involved.

The 22re does not bolt right up thus new motor mounts are needed to be put on the frame, wiring will need to be messed with but isnt hard at all really, custom exhaust will have to be made, New tranny or R151F bellhousing will need to be put on the existing manual tranny unless you have an auto then its a whole other story. The list of details goes on!

Use the search and youll find out more on this all!

The info is definitely out there! the reason it may be hard to find is because there are easier and better options. dont get me wrong the 22re is a great motor but the swap isnt as popular
