Not to.

"Cheap" and "engine swap" are terms that should never mix.

You want suggestions but you leave us with no details...vague questions will get you vague answers.
Is it an 88-91 or 84-87
Is it 4wd or 2wd?
What are your goals?
Define cheap.

It would be cheaper/easier to put a B-series swap in an 88-91 2wd then a 84-87 4wd.
