Either way, you are in for some hard dirty work. If you have access to the newer 4.0 liter HO and it's entire wiring harness and ECU, I would definitely go that route. Were you offered a pretty good deal on the newer HO motor?

If you want to swap the parts get it. lots of work but worth the outcome.

So, drop that 94 motor in and call it a day.

well im hearing that i may have problems with the intake manifold sitting up higher on the 94 than my 88

why would i need the wiring harness from the 94 would the 88 work ??
