Was running past and couldn't resist!The B230ft would be the easiest and most cost efficient swap.You would also have less "smog" hassles depending on where you live.With a donor parts car it could be a weekend project.The V8 swap (small block) is ok and the kits currently offered seem to be pretty complete.I would go with a converse (5.0 ford) conversion if I was going to.Stay away from the Big Block swap unless you want a straight line car.(VERY fun to drive in a straight line however!) Mr "T" was right when he said they handle "dump trucky".Even the small block will be a bit of a bummer if you don't do the suspension mods as well.I'm a little biased though,I love B230ft's (they are my friends!)
