Hi Bill,
    I have plans for such a swap on my new 85 truck. At this point I plan a
complete swap, hoses, engine, electronics.  I plan to do a complete rebuild
on a 2.1L with dynamic balancing and possibly counter balancing. Any advise
good or bad is appreciated. Any one interested in a complete 85 engine,
electronics, exhaust along with a 2nd complete spare back up set of engine
electronics get in touch. I need to do a rebuild on the 2.1L and will then
swap the engine. The 85 engine is running just fine no leaks  and has
recently made a 800 and 2 130 mile trips.
