That car should be restored and fixed of its problems, with a newer 6 and it can be there as an extra car to use for whenever your car is in a fix or something.

It'd be cool dude, or you can transition it to be YOUR car, it would be better because you could put 4th gen stuff into the 3rd gen like your seats/seatbelts, other crap too. A 3.8 is exactly what im trying to do to mine as of now, because im looking to bore over a 3.4

Re: Might get a project/beater/guinea pig

shit man, if you wanna put a sixer in it, do the 4.3L swap, you can get the power of a 350 with the gas mileage of a sixer, and it also will give you a better weight balance by sitting farther back on the frame. worth looking into.

That actually sounds like the best idea, i'll look into it 89 but what will I have to change out? Other than the engine of course but tranny, or fuel pump and stuff like that?

Re: Might get a project/beater/guinea pig

actually, you wont have to change the tranny if it originally came with a 305. and ill have to check the article, but there is a company that sells the nessesary brackets to put a 4.3L in place of a small block. Other than that, youll need to use the computer from the 4.3L doner car. and a few other goodies. nothing too serious. Ill also post the info on the 4.3L chevy high performance did up.

Re: Might get a project/beater/guinea pig

If you buy a 3rd Gen Kasey, I know a guy who has a couple LT1 that need a good home (in exchange for a small pile of money)

and a LT1 bolts right up to a 700r4.
