i am looking into doing a swap to my 98 gt u wana go ether 351 or 429-460 and wana know if anyone knows a site that has info on this type of swap into this year of car
i understand the 429 and the 460 but i dont think it would be hard at all for the 351 if i was converting to carb . i am in school for auto tech and we are gana be starting engine rebuilding within the next 8 months and ive been thinking of going to the junk yard and pulling a block , getting it cleaned and bored 30 over and just buying a rebuild kit for about 1500-2000 i can have a new 358 complete for the money i dont see any better way for powerbut like i said anyway if anyo0ne knows a site that explains any of this lmk
If you got a 94-95 with 5.0 then it will be easyer to swap in 351. All your elctronics wont work right with 351 with sohc wiring harness. Dont forget you need to change k member, tranmission etc...
The T45 has an integrel bellhousing for Modular engines. The 302/351W/351C bellhousing bolt pattern is different. As is the 351M/400M/429/460 bell housing family......they are also different from the Modular cars.
A swap will most likely make it no longer street legal. Emissions complience issues.
I would do a PI swap/rebuild for the money you talk about ($2000) will get a nice running engine.
