Those are some good MPG numbers! For now I'm just doing the engine swap, if I swap transmissions I want a stick OD in it.

I got some 31+ inch 265/75/16s mounted on the rear wheels over the weekend, but I haven't put them on yet as I'm in the middle of relocating the rear shackle mounts and flipping the front spring hangers. Probably gonna end up with around 4" rear drop and 5" front, the bigger tires should help fill the rear wheelwells a little better. Can't wait to see how it looks!
