8100 Vrotec???

i've been looking around for this swap, and i can't seem to find anyone who's done it. i was thinking of swapping in a 8100 Vortec out of a 3/4 ton or 1 ton GMC/Chevy pickup. i kinda wanted to keep all the efi, because the car is going to be my dd, at least until i can pick up another dd. i'd also be getting a worked over T56 or (if i can find one) a Muncie M22.

any thoughts on this???

Re: 8100 Vrotec???

i was seriusly thinking about dropping one in a 3rd gen, but after reviewing the pros and cons. i decided that a 6.0 based engine would make just as hp n/a with oem heads. easier to swap into 3rd gen. alot more swap parts readily available.
