What year is your car? if its carbed and you wanna stay that way it will be easy... get your motor, v8 motor mounts, v8 springs, and i think you'll need a new tranny but i think the v6 and 8 tranny's are the same (i could be wrong)

The V6 and V8 trannys are different... I made the same mistake before. the mounting areas and the like are the same, but the bellhousing bolt patterns are completely different. A V6 transmission will not bolt up to a V8.
