v6 to 350
what things would i need to do a v6 - 350/t-56 tranny swap?
-new engine + transmission
-new radiator?
-heavier suspension
anything else?
(I want to try and get a carb engine if I can)
Will the 6-speed transmission shift box fit in my current counsel? (automatic)
Thanks for any help that you can give me

Take a look over the posts on V6 to V8 swaps on this forum (go back a couple of months), you'll find all the info you need and what it will take to do it. Then go to the Transmission and Drivetrain forum to get info on the T56 swap.
Unless this car has some particular sentimental value (such as being your first car, or has been in the family since new), the swap isn't really worth it. But, only you can decide that, and obviously, a bunch of us have done the conversions of which you speak.
