I think any major modifications would definitely be over my head at this point. I would be paying someone else to do them at first. Hopefully, I would pick up on things as time passes. I do agree that doing it myself would force me to understand everything and make repairs much easier/cheaper.

On a different note: Would a geared 4 cylinder be somewhat equivalent to a 6 cylinder in how powerful it feels? Someone told me this today and I am not sure whether to believe it or not.
well here you go(not mine)

not a bad price 4.0 motor and a stick. Leaf spring so it is easy to lift and swap out axles
