2.8 to 5.4
I have a 82 Berlinetta Camaro with a crappy 2.8 in it. I have a 327 back from the machine shop all ready to put in. I was wondering what stuff I'm going to need to replace. Heres what I've thought of so far
Radiator
Clutch
Ignition System
Motor Mounts
Bellhousing(Amazingly enough my Saginaw will work until I blow it out)

What's the vintage of this 5.4/327?
Basically, it's a V6 to V8 swap, about which much has been discussed on this forum. Easiest way to get all the parts you need is to get a factory V8 donor car.

That's what I meant. There's a later version that's close to 327 that would have been a whole different ballgame.
What I said before still applies.
