Im picking up a motor for real cheap. Its a Chevy Vortec 5.3 liter with the auto tranny. I just wanted to see if anybody has ever did a motor swap into a foxbody? I have a few questions and just wanted to see if anyone can help me out with some answers and some advice.


Its just something to have a lil fun with. Im geting the engine, trans, computer, and wireing harnest for $300 with only 78000k

No one on here would do that, because thats just stupid. Why would you want a fast car with minor mods and awesome reliablity? Keep the 5.0 block and run 13's!!!
