What fits are basically the 2.6, 2.9 and 4.0. You're best off staying with the 2.8 as the above poster said. The 2.6 is a real downgrade and the 2.9 and 4.0 are EFI and would be a lot of work to adapt, you have to repace the wiring harness, fuel lines and probably fuel tank along with a few other details.
