2000 xlt & 1997 sport
I just bought a 97 sport in almost new condition... except for the rattling timing chains (SOHC). I have a low mileage 99 (SOHC) engine and I would like to know if it can be installed in the 97 sport. Local salvage yard says no but I'm hoping they are wrong. Thanks.
 






You can.
 






Just looking at the motors... I see the 99 has a single gas line and the 97 has two. What is the difference on that and how do I work around it?
 






Change the upper and lower intakes. Or possibly just the fuel rail.
