Gas price going up // Rethinking the new project car

Make more sense to just drive the dakota then if your content with a POS driveline....why swap it out.......be junk no matter what platform it sits in
Ummm... you realize I'm not the OP, right? I'm not swapping anything, nor do I have a Dakota. If he want's to do it, no business of mine. I just gave him an alternative to fuel mileage that's a very feasible swap. He could even put a carb and intake from a earlier year. I've owned lots of 2.2/2.5's - mostly turbo's.
