OMG no responses, in all this time.

I was just researching what v8 and tranny set up I should use, and I came across this post
I am shocked to see no input here come on guys give a bro a hand

everybody says 302/carb and c4 seems pretty easy. Although I am a chevy guy myself

OMG, there is an entire section dedicated to engine swaps. look further down the last page.

i know this guy (cole) that did a 350 swap in his 2200 he has it on craigslist for $4k
make him a offer if had the cash it would so be mine
