I was thionking of doing a V-8 swap for my V-6 and was wondering if I found a donor car (V-8) if all the parts from it would fit on the V-6 that I have now. Could I just take out the engine, rear end, and other components from the V-8 and fit them perfectly on the V-6 or not? I would think so sine they are the same body, but just wanted to make sure before I get my self in too deep.

Everything fits, perhaps a tad of tinkering but not much...

my friend this question has been asked over and over, week after week. Advise, use the search functionhttp://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/503/131259googlejackson.jpg

bottom line, everyone has always agreed that all and all a v6-v8 conversion is gonna cost you as much as saving up and buying a v8 to begin with, so save up, sell the 6 and buy an 8. Plus you'll have a higher resale value if its an 8 to begin with instead of it being a converted v6-v8.

No it does not bolt right up. shinigami is a n00b!!! ;-) You would need to do a fair bit of fabrication. not worth it at all. your better off droping $3000 on a v8. then you arent plauged with problems and work that you probabley wont be able to do anyways. plus you arent without a car for very long that way.
