Hey guys so as some of you know I am rebuilding a 2.8 I bought from one of the forum members. I am rebuilding it at school. I just wanted to know something, what all would I have to do to swap from My current iron duke to the rebuilt 2.8? Both are from or in and Automatic. Would I need a different Trans? Would I need to Upgrade my rear suspension?? How easy is it to find the computer and wiring for a 2.8??

Thanks

Fairly much just bolts right in, could be a different front motor mount, and a V6 harness and exhaust. Larry

I think I recall that your car is an '84? That makes it a bit harder.
