I recently inherited a 95 dodge ram Magnum v6 which he used for 15 years as an HVAC technician. It has not been run regularly in 5 years. Minor Rust all over and an engine with water in the oil. I can pull the heads to check the headgaskets. How can I check for a cracked block. He has had the engine replaced once and the odometer only has slightly less than 100,000 miles. Are there any newer engines I can put in without major modifications. If I can get it fixed up, I will sell my current car and drive this. I am assuming I will need all new belts, hoses, fluids, definitely a batter. Basically, I am looking for some recommendations. What kind of fuel mileage do these typically get when running properly. Also, is it a bear to get an OBD1 vehicle in texas inspected? That is my main concern. My other option is to sell it dirt cheap. But I would prefer to keep it.
