I have a 95 b4000 4x4 5spd. that I have put a lot of maintenance into through the years. I love it and it has served me well. The engine has between 200k-300k on it; ( the speedo/odo did not work for 19 yrs)
Now I need to change head gaskets. I'm a little concerned with this much mileage what I may find when I pull the heads.
so I can
1. Pull the heads, change head gaskets and run with it.
2. Get new or reman heads (but then what about the bottom?)
3. Buy a used 4.0l ohv engine
4. Buy a used Sohc engine and computer.
I can do 1. thru 3. on my own but need details, real details about swapping to a Sohc.
has anyone done it??
