Welcome aboard.

If you do a search on this forum for "V6* swap" (you need the "*" because the search function requires 3 characters), limited to title only, you'll get a page full of links that will contain all the info you need.

The best info is contained in threads to which I've responded...

Not entirely untrue

Welcome to TGO man, good luck with the swap. The V6 -> V8 swap topics come up a few times a week, so there should be alot of good info here.
