      Not gonna find easy or cheap with a V8 swap. A M50 or M52 swap would be more straightforward, and cheaper assuming you can find a running motor in the junkyard.

          m50 swap is the easiest and cheapest

          V8 is not cheap or easy in the slightest

              M52 OBD1 swap with some M3 cams and bolt ons would give you pretty nice bang for your buck.

                      The *EASIEST* swap is always to put one in that's just like the one that came out.
