Re: nother engine swap
A few people have done it, but I've heard you need to rewire the whole car.

Re: nother engine swap
oh shit no.... that why all cavy's are called j-bodys.... everything it built on the same frame... its when you take engines from like a grand prix and stick it in there then you will have to mod it...
