I know I am probably a pioneer in this field, but here is why. I have a 99 camaro 3.8. I wrecked it but all of the mechanical components are in good shape. I was looking for a donor vehicle that needs a motor and tranny. The best option I have found so far is an SS camaro that I can get for $1500 that needs a motor and tranny. What would I have to replace to put my v6 in the car? Is it okay to run the v6 with the v8 fuel pump. Would it run rich?

Re: v8 to v6 swap
For starters..you are looking at:
Wiring harness & computer
K-frame
Trans Mount
Springs(unless you want to sit 4x4 style)
and as far as the fuel system...that can probably be handled by a fuel pressure regulator -

Re: v8 to v6 swap
I feel ya, I wouldn't mind having a v8 maro but I already have all of the v6 parts. If I put a v8 in the car I would end up with close to $7000 invested. I am looking for a cheap ride to get around in.Comment
