[QUOTE="NIT2WN, post: 4357168, member: 17820"] Do you know who done the work and if it was a quality swap? If you have problems with it can you get any help from them? The advantages are it may be a cheaper car. the disadvantages are numerous. How well of a swap was done? Did they put the bigger springs in the front to support the v8? assuming it's fuel injected so was everything wired correctly? Since it's fuel injected, did they upgrade the fuel pump? The answer to all of this is to get a mechanic friend to thoroughly look the car over and treat it like it's got the plague. If it's up to snuff and it's what you want, get it. Make sure you get the year and make of the car the drive train was pulled from as it could be helpful later in getting parts. I drove 1000 miles round trip to get a great looking 5.0 GT but the more I look into her now the more I find wrong. The problems aren't major but the nickel and dime stuff is adding up in a hurry. So, I'm telling you to look any of these cars over hard. Make sure what you find wrong you can fix and know what it's going to cost before hand. I got a fair car for a fair price all in all but she wasn't a steal by no means. [/QUOTE]
