So I've been reading everything I can on these 2swaps an now I'm wanting a little insight from people who have done them as to which they think is easier.

So here we go I have a 91 ram50 its 2wheel 5spd 2.4l I'm wondering if it's is easier or more cost effective to just swap the dohc head or should I do an entire 2.0 swap. Either way I will rebuild whichever engine I go with an I will be adding performance parts. Next I don't do software so that will be done at a local shop. I will be up grading brakes fuel an of course as mentioned software an wiring. Will the stock 5spd handle higher horsepower or will I need to upgrade the internals, I would prefer a rw6spd from the foreign market not American. Any an all answers are greatly appreciated.
