Haha! Rabbit w/ BMW badges FTW!
On another note, where would I place the 02 sensor for an AEM wide band? I really don't want to pull the headers and drill & weld a new bung in. I have true duals with no cats and had bungs welded in at the original rear 02 locations. From what I've read on LR, its advantageous to mount it on the passenger side. Would I be OK mounting it on that rear passenger bung & maybe an EGT on the right side? Man, there's a lot of these miniscul technical details I have to iron out....

But do I really wanna spend 2k on it... I think driving 60 miles round trip to work and needing my truck to be down for a little while for the engine swap I have good reason to get a DD. I know my gf will be pissed though...

Edit.
No engine or trans issue at all. Starters and front ball joints

Gotta do what you gotta do man. Have you searched on CL? Bought my last 3 rides from individuals on there. The integra would be a good choice also. Hows the overall condition? Mileage, riced out, mods? Bone stock with less than 150k or so would probably be suitable.

As much as I hate to admit it,since I'm not a fan of imports a toyota 4 banger would probably be good for a dd. That way you still have a bed for junk yard runs when your truck is down

Its the rears I'm talking about. I had rear o2's with mil-eliminators before I got my tuner. Now, they're electronically deleted and physically disconnected. So, basically I have 2 free ports I could use there. Yeah, the length of the wiring does come in to play. Not sure if there would be enough to make it all the way to the dash. Most kits come with 6' of cable, right?
