well im checking things out and have a few more questions before i really consider investing money into this swap. i found the swap kit which includes the mounts and headers, ilocated a decent engine and c6 which i will rebuild. but what about the rear and drive shaft?. can i get by on the 8.8 for a short period of time? and how are you guys going about finding a properly suited drive shaft?....its a shame i cant squeeze a buick 455 in there i have one of those in my garage..lol..ohh i wanted to ask the motor i found is a 87 i know after 73 the numbers fell on their face but what are you folks getting out of these with a basic bolt on setup and what can these little fellas hold as far as power?..i plan on builing a setup that wil compliment a n20 setup ported heads and intake with a custom cam and a fair n20 shot if they can hold the juice...thanks and sorry for the long post.
