i have a 302 sbf in mine was a little hard but im bodied and bagged i think if i wasnt bodied it wouldn't be that bad
You guys are always taking these things the wrong way.. Don't need a v8, you need to put a little geo metro motor in these things! That's the swap I want to see someone do! ha ha! I'm joking of course...
everything i have read about the v8 swap in these trucks says that SBF are easier then SBC because of the distributer placement at the fire wall.
There is always the 1uz motor too. YouTube - Turbodave road racing 1UZ 5spd truck‏ here is one that turbodave did. this one is turbo as well
