Bo185,
My son and I just bought a '73 Scout II and want to consider a modern V8 swap. The 5.3L seems like the most available and a good choice. Can you recommend the most straight forward engine and tranny combo without adding a lot of headaches to this swap? We just want it to be a good daily driver, no rock climbing, etc. The Binder currently has all stock parts - 345V8, 4 spd, standard transfer case.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
