So I bought a 93 and I'm working to covert it into a Jurassic Park tour vehicle. The previous owner put a donor motor in it about 5 years ago and now it's developed a knock. I only paid a few hundred bucks for the whole truck anyway and it's in nice cosmetic condition and has loads of new parts.
Anyway I looked at a 94 motor donor (craigslist, $150) and it sounded a little tired but ran ok. I worry about compatibility since I noticed my 93 doesn't have the extra emissions stuff that was used on the 94 motor... and other things like the belt tension pulley is in a different spot. Should I pass on it? Junkyard is my next option but I've never pulled a motor from there before so I'm not sure if that's a great option.
Thoughts? Thanks fellas!
