Any 2V will work. But you will have to do some wiring for the extra 2 cylinders. If you could get the whole doner truck that would be Ideal if not you will need to get peice by peice. The things I can think of off the top of my head would be PCM, motor wiring harness, fan shroud, The trans will bolt right up.

I think he might already have a v10 and just wants a newer one....really (IMO) the question is`nt "possible" but rather it is about the cost involved to do it in the first place.

I agree. I think cost will be the major factor in this type of project.

If he does do it I hope that he will post the project on the forum as he is doing it.
I always like seeing how other people do there projects.

After rereading I think you are right, It must have late or something..

Does anyone know where the best place to look for an used engine is? I tried calling some local salvage yards, but no luck. I am new to the internet so I am unsure where to start looking.

You could check Ebay.com
Just be sure to read all the details and what they want for shipping.
Some sellers sell for cheep and try to screw you on the shipping.

My guess would be the OP wants the power of the 3V engine.
