Engine Swap

Need guidance. i have watched them done before but am going to attempt to do one myself.

I have an 85 camaro that the guy before me gutted and turned into a strip car. no interior besides seats. ive driven it for a few months as a daily driver, but instead of completely restoring it and spending 1000's of dollars that i dont have, i have a 91 that i am buying for 300 dollars that the interior is completely stock and exterior is in good shape. unlike mine that needs soo much body work i wouldnt even know where to start. it had the 305 and tranny but he pulled it out. and is selling it as a roller. my car has 383 stroker and turbo 350 tranny with shift kit. i want to just throw both of them in here and call it a day. how hard is this going to be. and what type of time/money does this usually cost?

Re: Engine Swap

It would be easier to swap the interior from the $300 car...
