/6 to 360 swap

heavybreather said

Please help, I need more power. I tried to work with the slant, but the whole reason i got a muscle car was to have a muscle car. Can anybody tell me exactly what I need to get from the wrecking yard besides the motor and trans, is there a write up somewhere. Also would it be hard to install a fuel injected 360/ trans setup or is it easier to stay carbed. :-|

I am doing just that once again on my 68 Barracuda. I have converted many a 6 banger to an 8. Even my S10 Blazer I installed a 350 in it.
What kind of car we talking about here? The first thing on a 6 cyl, is the K-frame change, You can buy adapter mounts, but the best way is to find an 8 cyl K-frame. Keep in mind as well, the small block and big block are differant. So it all depneds what you want.
