Default 4 cyl to 6cyl swap

I have a friend with an 02 sanoma and the motor is messed up. We were wondering if the V6 motor is an easy swap and what it takes to do it. Also wil the factory 5 speed bolt up to the v6.

Everything it would to throw in a V8.


Probably better to just replace the 4 2.2. But if putting in a V6 is what your after, you would be altering fuel lines, replacing or splicing entire wiring harness, new radiator, new exhaust, new tranny, new motor.
