engine swap
I have an 86 pickup (4X4) carbed. It blew a freeze plug (front one) which I replaced. After that the truck ran fine for 2 years. Now it is blowing air back into the radiator. I pulled the head and replaced the gasket which did nothing to fix the problem. I did not see a crack in the head, so I am guessing the problem is the block.
I found a used 1991 22R engine. This brings me to my question. Can I swap my 86 parts, brackets, intake, exhaust, 5 speed..... onto this motor and be back on the road? If I can then I'll cam it and add a header..
Are there any better drop in solutions? This vehicle is primarily used as a ranch/hunting vehicle.
Thanks
Bob
