Re: 67-88 cab swap
Idk about you, but the physical part isnt
Too hard. Just kinda figure out the height and make some mounts... I Wana 6.5 swap my 74 soon. My thing is wiring... How would that work, unless you run manual gauges?

Re: 67-88 cab swap
As for Gagues I figured go to aftermarket, or a guess is someone’s made a mech/elec Adapter for such an ordeal... I hope. Have you measured out the ddimensions for motor to fit in 74? Biggest worry for me is about lining up nv500 trans, pretty tall so I’ll be doing some cut n fit on mine.

Re: 67-88 cab swap
I adapted all of my stock Jeep gauges with my 6.5 swap. Hint - use the senders for the vehicle you are dropping the engine into. I simply adapted all of the Jeep senders to fit into the 6.5 block.

Re: 67-88 cab swap
I've done the same thing on most of my swaps so the factory gauges etc work.
