Hello fellow Bricksters! I'm calling out for any information, helpful tips, thoughtful insights, or personal stories about swapping a 240 I-4 w/ a turbo into a 262. The 262 is a 1980 and the 240 is a 1981 I believe, which should mean all the wiring harnesses and other stuff should be of the same design. What I need to know is: will it fit?; will it run with the current setup of wires, fuel lines, cables, etc.?; will I also have to buy the transmission off the 240 engine?; are there any special parts I'm gonna need?; and finally is there any special precautions I should know about? some of you should remember me from a few months ago with most of the same questions. However now I'm in less of a time constrained position now. Its my senior year of high school and it really bums me out that I dont have a car to cruise in, but oh well. Waht can you do? Thanks and keep on keeping on! John Reece - Jacksonville, AL
