Hey guys I need your opinion on swaping or staying. I have two 240's one is a 91' w/single over head fair condition and 92' dual over head has some body work, I was thinking of swaping my daul overhead to the 91 240 I just need an honest opinion on what to do. And if I swap my dual to the 91 body do I have to splice in the harness from the dual to the 91 in order for all the connectors to fit????

if its a 91 then it already has a dohc

89-90 are the sohc91-98 are all dohc

just a couple of the plugs for the dash wiring need to be spliced. the wire colors i have read are the same, but the actual plug is a little different. something like 6-7 wires nothing much.

search for the swap since there are a couple other things you need to do such as :

Every parts store and dealer in the country seems to think that, but they must have been real ****ing early, because I have yet to see one.
