Now, before all of the un-educated flames start flying, I just want to say a few things.

We all love Mustangs, we wouldn't be here if we didn't. Mustangs are cars. Cars break. Not everybody can afford or has the resources to fix them with the 'appropriate' parts. So instead of letting these amazing pieces of automotive creativity rot away in some field, we do what we can with what we have to get them back on the road for everyone to enjoy. After all, it's not what drives it, it's what's being driven that matters.

And with that said. I'm going to be swapping a sbc 350 into my '88 vert. I can find very little information from others that have done it before. There are about 3 sites with vague information on them. I'm just wondering if anyone on here has had any experience with this swap.

With all the junkyards out there with cheap running 5.0's it would probably be cheaper to buy one of those than put a chevy motor in it. It should be a crime to do that anyway.
