you'll need a V8 rad as the V6 has water outlets on the wrong sides. Other than that it will be straight forward. If you are running a carbed SBC you'll need to modify the ignition coil wiring to work with the in cap HEI if thats the route you are going. I did a SBC swap on an 86 camaro when I was in tradeschool and it wasnt a hard swap. PM me if you need help.
