All of this is assuming the D2 isn't SAI... if it is, the heads are different.

A Chevy swap? Really? I'm pretty sure this has been discussed before. If there is any kind of inspection in your state, it can't be done. If the engine can be made to physically fit (i.e. drivetrain adapters, accessory mounts, cooling system, exhaust, etc.) integrating the electronics will be very time consuming. A reman block with top-hat liners would make more sense and ultimately cost less.
If you don't relly need the vehicle and have plenty of time, patience and skill and relly want to show that you can make the swap actually work, then go for it. Otherwise, stick with a Rover engine.

in my early 20's I and a couple of friends put a Chevy 427 in a 78 Toyota SR5, we ran military axles and 48 inch super swampers. If any of you are from New Orleans and were around in the mid to late 80's you would have known about The Chevota called Childs Play.
Thanks for all the input
