    or would you have to modify the car to fit it?:hmmm: i don't plan on getting a v8 and swapping any time soon but it's good to know for when i do. and i know i will eventually

    yes. Youll need the coversion parts though. Frame/motor mounts, tranny/engine crossmember, throttle cable. I think thats about it.

    thanks, i'm glad i don't need too much else. besides, if i can afford the engine those parts shouldn't be out of my price range

    Uhhh...one more thing you'll have to get. A new name!!! :rofl2:
    Seriously though, everything will just bolt right in. Let us know when you get ready. We can help you gather the parts. (y)
