Im planing on doing this mod when i get my loan for my b-day. I love this car and dont want to get another one. Im not sure on the misc. part that i will need for this swap. I have friends with the tools and experience so thats not a problem. Heres what i know i'll need so far:
New Mounts
Atleast a bellhousing for the V8
Front Springs
AFPR
Exhaust
Not much so far. Ive searched so far but i want to know what i need for the ZZ4. I would appreciate any help from you guys. The motor swap guys arent very helpful

'86 IROC-Z 305TPI(My friend said he only had it at 3/4 throttle but he had it pinned and i started pulling in 2nd gear)

 

you'll need a whole new tranny.......automatics do not use a seperate bellhousing......the bellhousing is one piece with the casing........trust me, i found this hard to beleive too, until i went to the transmission shop to get my T5 rebuilt........IMHO, the whole swap is not worth it.........if you want a V8 car, buy a V8 car..........maybe a 3.4 will interest you?

 

Only one true way a V-6 is good for a V-8 swap. Find a stripped junk car, great body.
Beyond that, CHECK YOUR LOCAL EMISSIONS LAWS FIRST.
The ZZ4 is a KILLER ENGINE PACKAGE, but a $5k bill, TO START! Rest of stuff you get new, used, rebuilt & problem solve.
