Hello Newbie here. I,ve run and built mostly A body Mopars all my life but recently got the 5.0 bug.
Here's my question I purchased a wrecked 92 GT 5.0 92,000miles 5 speed 16" ponys with a salvage title,needs a core support, driver fender, aprin, bumper and cover and the typical front end stuff but suspension is good and motor runs good.
i lack the patience of welding and body work. But can bolt on all day
I also have a straight 89 lx coupe clean title with a bad automatic tranny.

I've performed a search on this site and have recieved mixed results for a swap
4cyl to v8 ranging from hard to easy. because of the newer engine in the older chassis

Since i have a newer donor car what do i need to swap over or what do you recommend to swap over what will work or not work.

Since i Have a full wrecked but running donor car should'nt this be a straight forward swap? 5.0 t5 8.8 etc

thanks for any info or how to's
