If great results could be had for $5K or so, then.....

Perhaps there is a way to install a crate motor (V-6?) and use as much of the existing power train and suspension as possible.
Yeah.... If you've got the stock 5-speed, get a bellhousing from a 96-00 Dodge Dakota 2.5L. It has the GM 60 degree bolt pattern and the AR5 trans pattern. You're halfway home with the 3800......
