1991 Dodge Dakota 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

what would I have to do to put a 92 3.9 in my 91. the 91 is throttle body and the 92 is multi port fuel injected. Both are 3.9 motors they do not have the same vaulve cover I am thinking that I could just swap the intake and distributer.

thats it, as long as the block is the same, it should bolt up correctly.
