I keep rereading your thread AND thinking... SMOKE poring out of my head !
I'm not overly familiar with what 4-cylinder fits what or the electrics involved for each one but are there any newer versions of that engine, that can be used as a replacement, maybe some salvage yard has a low mileage engine, all the wiring and the such to make a good conversion !
I know I was impressed with my '95 Short bed single cab... GREEN for Jamman, I think it was the 2.3L, 5sp, it had 8 plugs and had two coils for the spark; great motor... but you need something newer I know.
Before I took the time to rebuild a 200K + Motor I would look at all the options, and a low mileage engine could fill the gap and get you up and running oil leak free and cost you an arm and a leg !
