What city are you in in NE Georgia? Try your local craigslist and see if you can find someone parting out a '94 - '01 Ram or Dakota with a v-8. Also, does your area have any self-serve salvage/junk yards, where you can go and pull off your own parts?

 

Im near Toccoa just moved here. so far haven't found any self service part pulling places yet. there is one in Commerce, GA about 33 miles from me. I might have to go there.

 

Looks like there is a college in that town. If that college has an automotive program, might want to ask some of the instructors where some of the good salvage locations are..
