Would be a cool swap, but I would think for the money you would be a able to build a pretty stout 302 or 351.

are you talking 5.8 or 5.4 ??
im assuming 5.4
and yes...its not gonna cheap but can be done, but not too hard
almost every mounting point is off....so custom DS and possibly motor to trans adapter too
id check some lightning forums...they will know whats up [ March 14, 2012, 06:51 PM: Message edited by: nitrous_bob ]

I got a donor lightning so i wana know what goodies i kan use. it is a 2nd gen 5.4. i think i kan get k member spacers from mm and run a kennybell i beleive it is shorter, so i can get more clearance for the hood.

For what that will cost, with how fucking dumb it looks, that video should change your mind!
