Just remember for a swap you need the tranny (and all swap related gear) and the 8.8. The K can be modified easy enough if it needs to be. Add new springs and shocks/struts to the list too.

Perhaps the car he was running it in was stripped? He'd also need new exhaust, too, right? Otherwise he'd have a lot of back pressure through that one little pipe.

Yeah, exhaust is on the list too. Add a driveshaft to the bill. Radiator too. Maybe fuel lines. Is it a 302 or 5.0? May need the computer if EFI'd.

Or less. Or more. It all depends on what you want and what kind of deals you can get. You might be able to do it cheap working at Discount.

Go get the new issue of 5.0 Mag. There's a bunch of swap articles in it including 2.3 --> 5.0.

Yeah, especially if you want to throw on some APC altezzas, indiglo gauges, seat belt straps, $14 rims, and 6" exhast tips. :rolleyes: :D :p
