Buick Motor into Thrid gen?

I've read and seen the stickies for the Pontiac motor swaps into a 3rd gen.

Anyone ever tried a "Nailhead" Buick motor like a 401 or 425?

I love seeing crazy stuff like this. Maybe one day when I have more $$ I might attempt it.

I never saw a "nailhead" but I did at one time see a buick 350 put in a 84 Z28 the buick 350 was one of the lightest engines ever produced (V/8) and was probably a decent swap weight wise but it diden't look like it was a easy swap...
