[FC] engine swap info

[Merv and/or Loretta]

Hey Dan! Put anything you like in there! Lots of room, just a little
engineering is all it takes. Can you use any components of an AWD Astro? I
was thinking about putting a Honda 2.2 in my GB at one time, but the 110
that is in it right now seems raring to go. No point changing out something
that is perfectly good. My ideal engine would be a Ford 4.6 V8, drop it in
midships, new and very sound insulated doghouse, rebuild what was the engine
compartment, install a freshair cooling tunnel or two to the radiator
(perhaps modified from the freshair vents in the kickpanels).
Most important... have fun!
