Hey guys -
Ran across this site actually looking for stuff to do to the stock 2.6 in a Ram 50. Well actually, it's a Plymouth Arrow, but it's the same thing. After I saw the 4G63 swaps, it really sparked my interest. Anyway, I was just wondering if anybody else had done one in a truck. I'm just starting my research on this, so hopefully I won't ask too many stupid questions. Look forward to finding out more about this...

Well, now I've got the truck, should I do the swap?

Never mind, I'm an idiot. Already started with the newbie junk. Already found two links for truck 4G63 swaps...

Man... there is no such thing as a newby on this board... ask any question you feel. There have been a few truck swaps. You truck guys are a real asset to this site. Hang out here all the time. We'd really appreciate it.
I'm shopping for as many 2.0L 5spd trannies as I can afford if you know of any for sale. Mine makes a whine like its got straight cut gears and might not last too long.. but that's what you get for $25.
Post photos and stuff please. We want to see your project come through!

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.
