So I'm considering. Swapping the 3.8l SC out for a 302 HO or bigger. I know the 302. Will fit, but what about a 460 BBF?
I'm not to fond of the 3.8l it seems to have to many issues. Hard to work on. And parts either don't exist or are expensive. The 302 I've got alot more experience with and I love that v8 rumble. But I don't want to rob the SC of its dignity by pulling what makes it a SC.
Now my? Is. Will I need to change the wire harness to accommodate the 302? What exactly has to be done to fit the 302?
Now I want it to be manual. I hate autos. So what 5spd should I bolt up to the 3.8l and what should I bolt up to the 5.0?
The shop I sold my 86 gt convertible too still has it and is willing to part it out. So I can get the complete Gt drivetrain package, along with computers and wiring.
Any ideas or comments are 100% appreciated.
