My thoughts exactly...spend the doe on a South America adventure...then 4K to ship to Africa...lol. If you are truely "overlanding" long term or for several months, thousands of miles from home...you want to keep it simple. No one with a half a brain puts their vehicle in a situation that can...

Can't offer any info on 2.8L, but that's a cool looking little rig. Had a V6 4.3 in my old Jimmy that clocked 365K and another in my Astro van 270K, without either ever seeing a wrench...besides for oil changes. GM has made some pretty reliable engines in the past and present, l say...if it's...

^^^My arthritis feels better just looking at that picture^^^
