Well I fell in to a free 258 complete that has a lot of work done to it soooooooo..... I'm taking off Friday to start pulling motors apart to swap my old 4.0 head onto my new 258 . Keeping the F.I. of course.

Been searching the net and found a few good articles but wanted to here from some one that has done it ( cough , cough.... GPER ! ) .

Which dist. do I use?
if I use the 4.0 Dist. do I have to change the gear?
will my serp. setup bolt to the 258?

Any help would be great , I have to get this thing going...... it's killing me seeing all the rigs running around .
