djmtsu will become famous soon enough
I am not a rotary leg humper, but how is doing an SBC swap cheaper than rebuilding your engine?

And the stock T2 rear end is plenty strong enough to handle an SBC. You can build your own mounts, but there are other issues to contend with. Oil pan, steering rack, etc.

Look at the Granny's kit just to get an idea of what you are going to need to build/buy. It is not nearly as cheap as you think.
