I know of a 4.3l motor, tranny, ecu, and complete wiring harness for sale for $700. Its alot better than the 2.2.

If he is going to do a swap he might as well step up to a V8. You can find Ls1s and 5.3 truck motors for a decent price at junkyards now.

Never gonna happen, But I'm the guy with the full 4.3 for sale with 78k miles on it , 2.2's are a waste. The most I would as with any car/truck is a intake and exhaust, no so much for power as for makeing it breathe better/run better.
