Possible swap issues?

Hey first thanks for taking the time to help. I just came into a 89 Iroc and the motor is well "crap". Just wondering if I were to go to a 427 what problems i might; if any, run into? Thanks again.

Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.

What kind of 427 are you talking about? If big block, there's a sticky in the top section of this forum with details about that. If small block, just the same power-handling issues you'd have with a big block.
