1984 Rampage

[DaveJ]

I have a Rampage that had the 3.56:1 525 trans. The 2.2 is dead in #4 and looks like the exhaust valve stem's tip is a lot lower so lost a valve seat. I have about 5 2.2 heads, 2 are swirl type. I have a 265 Degree 0.499" lift roller cam for it too.

So the question is, do a rebuild? or.....

1. Put a V8 up front and hang a 8.25 rearend on the leaf springs.

2. Son has a neighbor with a Mini Van with a 3.3 and AWD. So hang the AWD rearend using the AWD rear hubs and center. Wondering if anyone has put a 3.3 up front.

3. Son has a Intrepid with the 3.5. Put the 3.5 in the bed and cut the axle shafts to fit. Build an Oak cargo crate as an engine cover.

I have 2 of these 84 Rampages, the second one has the Auto.
