I just looked through a couple threads on the subject but I have a few questions. I have the i6 200 with an auto c4. Will it hook up to the rear end I currently have? I currently have a 2.3 4x4, manual ranger. The c4 is 2x4. What about engine mounts? What elaw should I look out for?

Should it be a pretty simple swap? Thanks guys!

I doubt there will be anything simple about, but if it fits under the hood it shouldn't be too bad.

Take LOTS of pictures and describe everything.

There might be enough room if you remove the fan and put a electric fan in front of the radiator. You will also need to have a driveshaft built to fit also. Your better of going with a 302 and a C-4 and is still alot of custom hammering. The six banger is just too long.

Hmm...I am only considering putting it in cause I have a 200 and c4 available. Not, going to go out and find a 302. Would the 200 work with the manual tranny I already have in it? I'm guessing no...
