I own a 1991 Camaro RS....Yeah it is only the 3.1L but I am still saving up for the 350.....I am trying to figure out what some of you all recommend on what engine I should get within a limit of $2,500.....I was also trying to figure out what rims I should get....The American Racing Torque Thrust II (Chrome)....Or of the ZO6 Rims have the same pattern as the 3rd Gen Camaro's.....PLEASE HELP ME GET THE RIGHT ANSWER.....

 

Well with a limit of $2,500 I'd say that the new engine is about all that you are going to be able to get along with the other things that are required in a V6 to V8 swap:engine,motor mounts,radiator,radiator hoses,perhaps front suspension springs and what ever type of fuel delivery system that you intend on getting(there's more to that with TPI vs just slapping on a carb and a intake).Unless you are planning to nickel and dime it to death(vs doing it right) expect to spend more than the $2500.It is also going to be more expensive than if you do it yourself.For a more detailed explanation on what to do gohere and look for the things that you want to do,also you may want to do a search on the V6 to V8 swap for more details.
