well, if you have a donor car, take out everything under the hood and under the car plus the ecu and wire harnesses from the ecu to the fuel injectors. Should be 2 pieces i think. I'm not sure about the K-Member since I haven't done any research on swapping to a mod motor.

Yeah. If you're car is your daily driver, don't do it. It takes way too long if you have other commitments. I helped rebuild the engine in my dad's truck, and he was without his truck for 2-3 months with just pulling the engine.

If you can get a donor car fairly cheap and do the work yourself, I think it's worth.

I'm supposed to be looking at a gt donor car this week that was deemed unrepairable. My 351W block is getting a bad diagnosis from the engine shop so I maybe be looking at a gt engine until I'm willing to pony up the dough for a dart 351.
