Post by Rabbitracer43 »

Just toying with the idea of this swap. Want to see who has real solid info and things necessary to do this swap? Thanks

Just browse in the "project" board, there are a few one who did it here, I think you'll find everything you need.
Just Ctrl+F "V8" or "4.2", if it's not about D11, you will mostly find stuff about B-Chassis

Have a look at Marc's build thread where he turbo'd a 3.6 then 4.2 in a coupe. It should be very similar in the engine bay, packaging wise.

Not sure if it's on here or just on Motorgeek.
