Yeah they aren't that beefy but for the kinda output you'd be making NA I don't think its really too much of an issue. Plus power and torque will peak higher in the rpm range than on a turbo probably. I don't mind using my old tall deck as the guinea pig. If I do start a project like that though it won't be until I have the K running again with a turbo engine.
Currently its looking like I'll be checking out CDM during Spring Break. Do they happen to keep any type of inventory of the cars that they have in the yard? I was thinking I would call them before I drive from Orlando just to get an idea on how many 89+ dodges they have. I am not sure how I am actually going to transport an engine if I find what I am looking for. I might see if I can borrow the truck from my uncle but at the same time if I do that, I wouldn't want to return empty handed if I cannot find what I am looking for. I wouldn't want to have to borrow the truck more than once either.
I also had an insane idea to split the block in half and see if someone could help me man handle it into the hatch of the Hyundai. I am not sure the rear suspension would like that much, and I know that raw 93hp 1.5L wouldn't like it much either. Probably not a good idea.
So thats pretty much my biggest dilema.
