will have a B36 engine to sale, but in france
The AQ180 produced 180 hp, probably a cam swap. The B36 was used in trucks and probably had a low rpm cam in it for stump pulling low end torks, not high RPM Hp.
The 2.8 l V6 from the Chevrolet S10 should also fit with minimal fuss. I have seen an Amazon with one. I don't know whether the T5 transmission was available on the 2.8 l or whether that was on the larger 4.3 l V6 (which also might fit). If you like to flash your numbers, power wise its almost as good as a B20B unless you get the high output versions (125 hp - Wow). However, torque was nice as befits a truck engine.
The 2.8L V6 did come with a T5 at some point. From some googling it would appear they came on the S10/S15 Blazer/Jimmy. Although the shifter will be in a different spot on an S10 T5. Maybe that will line up better with the more forward shifter hole placement on an earlier 140? I know I've been trying to figure out a five speed transmission option other than the M41 that keeps the long shifter.
