Default motor swap input?

Just got given a running 1973 dodge ram power wagon 250 with a 340 and a four speed and I'm thinking of stuffing it and the axles in the heep

Dodge axles aren't worth it. Do some googling and you'll see what I mean.

V8 into an XJ? What kind 'tard would even consider something like that. You'll have to plate EVERYTHING.....even the glass. Only a booger-eating moron would do some that stupi.....

Wait...What?


Nevermind.
