Early Dakota with a 4 cylinder and a 904 Torqueflite

I was originally thinking along those same lines but maybe with an SRT-4 Neon engine... But, have you seen what GM Ecotec fours can do with a stock bottom end and big boost and charge coolers? I feel like it's a pretty safe bet the aftermarket support for electronics would be a lot less expensive as well. Unfortunately, sometimes the best probable option is the least popular. I personally miss the MP support for the 3.9 V-6. Certainly not a huge potential engine unless you want to build a bomb but good potential in a light vehicle.
