Engine Swap
I have a 90 GT 302, How hard would it to be to put this engine in my car. http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerc...76&prmenbr=361 its a 302 so it can be that hard right.
Also would it just be cheaper, and easyer to get new heads and pistons. would i come even close to 340hp if i were to just swap the heads and pistons for better ones. thanks.

It would take a lot less time to put that engine in than to put new pistons in your old motor. If that was the question not sure?

Re: Engine Swap
Pistons are very hard to do with the motor inside the car, and on a 15 year old engine chances are you have no cross hatch left on your walls and will need to bore them out.

It's easier to just do the swap, doing a rebuild requires a little more skill than what the average car owner has.

Re: Engine Swap
teh cam can be done with the motor in the car. the intake manifolds need to come off, as well as a lot of the accessories. radiator comes out, a/c exchanger can be rotated out of the way without purging it. i think you can leave the front valance on but don't quote me on that.
