Hey guys,
I know that this is not a 2.3 Question, but I figured you guys know your stuff and may be able to help me out. A friend of mine found an 89 GT with no motor or tranny, apparently the body and interior are immaculate. It is going for $360 Canadian. That is a steal. Now, he does not want to spend the extra money on fuel, so he asked me if it was possible to put a V6 in there as opposed to a 302. I know that it is possible, but how difficult would it be? I would imagine that if you fabricated new motor mounts and a a new tranny mount, everything else should bolt together fairly well and you'd just be left with room to spare. The wiring is all 12 volt, so theoretically that shouldn't be a problem. Anyways, that's about all for me. Thanks in advance for any useful info. It's much appreciated.
