dk0018 Posted March 3, 2005 Author Share Posted March 3, 2005 ok.. I found that a 2000 doesn't fit into a 97. 2000 and up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commuter Posted March 3, 2005 Share Posted March 3, 2005 If the 2000 is a Phase II engine... Essentially no. It "can" be done. And has been done. I have info from a guy (who use to post on this board) who did it. He ran into several problems though. I think you could change out just the block though, if the rest of your engine is good.
