my b2

[Chris diehl]

Here's my b2. I bought it this way so I take no credit. I love it but I NEED MORE POWER!

 

[4.0B2]

4.0 swap it! looks nice tho

 

[Chris diehl]

Thanks. Id love to. Unfortunately I don't have the money or the know how and it always takes one of those lol

 

[4.0B2]

The know how is nothing to worry about. It's not that hard honestly.

 

[adsm08]

And it's also the cheapest route to get more power.

 

[4.0B2]

or you could use a super charger......lol

Ill have to keep the 4.0 swap in mind. Now I have a ton of questions so it looks like I've got some reading up to do . Ill get some more pics up and try for larger ones. Thanks for the replies guys.

Yes. 4.0 swap. OR, you could regear your axles, but that'll be more costly than a 4.0 swap.

BII looks good! :icon_thumby:

 

[Chris diehl]

What do I need to put a 4.0 in? The motor and what else?

 

[Heavyfire14]

the harness

 

[BlackBII]

Just the engine with its components and the harness, but I would recommend using the 4.0's radiator and M5OD tranny if you don't have one already.

With you having a 1st gen, swapping the harness will be more involved, but many many users on this forum have done it, and we have tons of threads and info in the tech library on the swap.

 

[Chris diehl]

I've got a brand new Mazda tranny in it now. Will that work?

High gears will make a 4.0 a dog too.

I see its an 85, you could always duraspark it to get some more power out of the 2.8.

 

[Chris diehl]

Its been durasparked already. What about headers or cold air intake? Would that help?

It should already have a tube that runs from the front of the truck to the aircleaner, the air can't get any colder than that. Might even call it a little bit of a ram air setup too.

Yea that makes sense. I like your signature by the way. Very true.
