What other mods do I need to make to my car to support a new engine? I am thinking about swapping in a 383 and am wondering what else needs to be done. Do I need suspension, gears, beefed up frame, etc.? Please help, I want to do some of these things before I actually buy the motor.
Thanks!

sub frame connectors and lower control arms. You will not be able to get the power to the ground unless you upgrade the suspension.

 

How about your tranny? If it is an automatic and has one leg in the grave and one leg on a banana peel, I suggest you beef it up as well.
