nope, a friend of mine just went the easy way and dropped a northstar in his :lol: tight fit, the nose got pushed out a couple inches to make room for the radiator, but it rode on 35s and went over anything. got any pics?

I know someone who may be able to do it.... You interested in doing it yourself, or having someone do it?

Haha, I've got the perfect motor for you if you decide on a V8 conversion... LT1 350 out of a 1995 caprice. $1000. I will talk to my buddy about the twin cam thing when I get back from maine.

It's the entire car. The car runs and drives.... Tranny shifts perfect, motor is strong. My buddy just ran a 14.8 in his caprice (he was bored, so he ran his daily driver) with just exhaust, CAI, and a little tuning. Not bad for a 4200lbs car. Either way, lemme know if you are interested. The car is actually at my buddy's shop, so I will ask him if he has any time to possibly do a conversion of such lengths as you would want... Just an idea I was throwing out. Lemme know.

BTW, I will also ask him about a twin cam conversion...
