ive been told its alot of effort and isnt worth it just buying a V8 one already is easier i personally have never done one and dont know how to but ive heard is to much trouble as the motors run completely differently apparently

Wiring loom and engine loom V8 gear box, as the input shaft is different for 6 and a cylinder box, unless you get it changed, maybe the bell housing, not to sure Possibley fuel lines Anyway some things to start ya off

plus k-frame, mounts etc
front springs and shocks (due to heavier engine) probably more... frd906n wrote: Computers

buy a head and cam package along with a set of extractors for the i6, cheaper and easier
