I was given a 94' v6 with a blown engine, I have been doing some reading and from what I gathered I should be able to swap in a 96-98 engine without too much trouble, am I correct in this?
I found at a local junkyard a 97 v6 engine with 41k miles for 600 dollars and I want to jump on it at that price but I didn't want to purchase anything until I was clear on the required parts for the swap, if anyone has done this before and could give me a run down on any extra parts I might need or trouble spots to look out for that would be great!

-Thanks
On a 96+ engine you will also need to change out the K-member for it to fit correctly .

I have no Idea how much a K-member is out of a salvage yard
On the 2000 engine swap , make sure you get the fly wheel or flex plate if it is an automatic the early 2000 engines are externally balanced the later 2000 are neutrally balanced , as long as the engine comes with the front balancer and the flywheel /flexplate your cool.
Don't get the 2000 wiring harness its harder to do without hacking it up- the pin-outs are different. It's alot easier to use the 96 harness on the 99+ engine. The 2000 also has the returnless fuel system but you could swap the fuel rails and use the FPR that you have . Its not a easy swap and if you don't feel comfortable doing it you should have
qulified mechanic do it. Hope this helps some

Woe to him who builds his palace by unrighteousness,his upper rooms by injustice,making his countrymen work for nothing...Does it make you a king to have more and more cedar?Did not your father have food and drink?He did what was right and just,so all went well with him. He defended the cause of the poor and needy,and so all went well...But your eyes and your heart are set only on dishonest gain,on shedding innocent blood and on oppression and extortion. Jer 22:13, 15-17
