Re: engine swap

i know you would need to replace the tranny too, because the v8 is a 90 degree block, and the 2.8 is a 60 degree block, so they won't bolt up.

Re: engine swap

It's not a big deal. You need a set of CNC machined motor mounts that will bolt right up with your 2.8L ones on the frame. Short headers and the deeper oil pan... http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...0002_758539_-1 Jegs offers kits. :P You should drop it 4" while you're at it like i did
