i haven't heard of many street cavi's that have put V8's in...i went to the GM dealer the other day to get a price for a 2.4 L and it was like 3000...he said a 350 would cost about 1600...possible?

FWD... RWD...

let's see ... you need a rear end, new transmission to go w/ the 350, have to hack up the floor pan to fabricate a transmission tunnel, custom mounts............ than figuring out all the custom wiring, troubleshooting... etc.... blech..fuck that.

youll spend more on the RWD... than dropping in a new 2.4L...

it'd be more cost efficient to build up a 2.4L and drop it in...

10:1 JE pistons
Eagle rods
worked over crankshaft
blueprint/balance the engine
remove the balance shafts
port polish the head
crower valvetrain
larger valves
2.3HO intake maniofld
big bore throttle body
custom cold air
battery to the trunk (for the cold air)
RKSPORT header
2.5inch catback..

man you'd have a streetable car running the stock PCM for less money..

yea but i'm not thinking money...i'm thinking RWD cavalier wit a LT1 or some nice V8 in it

YES! that would be awesome. definately put those imports back in their place too...behind us. keep the big block alive my friend, because there's no replacement for displacement!
