I just bought an 86....but i wanna know how easy it would be to go four eye to two eye, would a 87 body kit bolt up, or do i have to drill. either way is fine....or would it simply not fit. And any suggestions for a 3.8 to 5.0 conversion kit....ecm, and harness.

Help appriciated,

couldnt pass up a perfect body interior, and convertable top for $250 just needs motor

umm if you wanted a areo nose car you should have bought one, other wise go over to foureyedpride.com they will be very helpful with the swap :lol:

Oh, you are BAAAAAAAAAAAD. LOL

well its a convertable, is urs? Im in Texas and sounds like a good trade to me it wuz a 3.8 and the motors ***t but the top is fairly new and body looks good.
 
lol well when i finish the swap and paint it u'll think diffrent....or maybe not, but the four eye doesnt look mean enuff to me....plus its mostly for the body kit i want, i didnt find one i liked for an 86
