These cars done really have subframes like a 2nd gen does...

That said, in theory you could swap the v6 into the formula, but id have to highly suggest against it.

Sell or part out the camaro, you should get enough cash to be able to get whatever the formula needs to run/drve again...and you'll have a formula with v8 power!

only thing different is the springs and swaybars for the most part.

Once you put the 383 in swap it all over, you will need the V8 springs for that 383. The sway bars will give you less body roll than the v6 camaro one will.
