V8 Swap

Ok im sorry if this has already been posted. My computer is really gay and wont search for some reason. I was wondering,If all else fails in, I might have to swap a V8 into my car and i was wondering how hard this would be to do. This is only going to be used as a last resort if i cannot get a 13b. I alreadyt have a built 302 in my basement. so it is a possiblity of going in.

There is a forum specifically for questions like these, please ask there and search its been done. This section is under rotary performance called "Other Engine Conversions."

And I'm going to move your thread there so they can help you.

It's not hard if you're good with a wrench.
