2.8 to an 350?

Well pretty much, heres the deal. I have brought a camaro that the last owner has taken apart the motor, because it was slipping not the tranny, It's an v6 but it's running on 4 not 6 c. How hard of a fix is that? or should i just swap my 350 out of my GMC 93 pickup, which is an v6 350? I have no idea.. any help would be awesome!

How hard to fix the V6? No clue, could be as simple as a spark plug change, could be a complete engine rebuild.

Not sure what you mean by "...350 out of my GMC 93 pickup, which is an v6 350?" If it's a 350, it's a V8.

Check the V6 to V8 swap sticky in the top section of this forum to get an idea what is required for that swap.

we're found the problem, the car has been sitting for over two years, and when we was taking the motor out we was looking at the motor found alot of things wrong with it, the oil was all gasy smelling, and the pipes was all yuky and had nasty **** in them, i wonder why the motor went to hell, lol we put in an 2.8 over the weekend runs great, just needs a paint now lol.
