    How hard is a turbo swap from a 89 Turbo van into a 88-91 N/A van?

    I have been in search of a turbo van here in Texas and i cant seem to find anything but N/A vans. My question is how easy would the swap be to throw in the turbo engine from a 89 Turbo van into a n/a 88-91 model voyager? What all would i need from the turbo van to complete the swap?

    Also one of the vans i found is a 5 speed would that bolt up to the Turbo engine? Here are some links to the vans i found. All help and info is appreciated. If there is a thread with the how to on the swap please post the link

    well if youve got 89 stuff I would be looking for a 88 or 89, 90 91 wouldn't change all much.

    I swapped my van from TBI to turbo. It's a simple harness swap...
