UPDATE:
Well, I finally did end up with a used 2.0 mazda engine I bought from a salvage yard. But now almost a 1 1/2 year later, I'm back to where I started. Blew a head gasket and warped the head. Soooo, Im thinking about swapping a 1995 S-10 4.3L engine into the b2000. I am some what mechanicaly inclined, and know lefty loosy and righty tighty...If anyone has done one of these swaps before, It would be greatly appreciated you can give me some pointers. Thx
