94 Firebird engine swap

[rcbryan]

Does anyone know of anywhere I could get a list of the parts required to pull the 6 out of my 94 firebird and put an 8 in? I am in Chicago and will probably have a shop do it.

There's not really a list because few people have done it.

off hand, you'll need a K-Member, all 3 wiring harnesses, tranny cross member... all that good stuff.

don't forget when going 6 to 8 you need better breaks, im guessing you have drums in the rear too... along with a stronger suspension or you'll nosedive the car off the road when you stop. You probably have a 2 piece steel driveshaft that has to go along with a open diff in the rear. It's too much work, take it from someone who did it. Should of just bought the v8

I hear you but my reasons are 1. I am unable to find anyone to buy it and 2. I like the idea of having a project. Besides I've got an SUV and a bike so it's not like it needs to be done any time soon.
