Yeah, I have seen couple of 240SX with 350 Engine Mods in them at car show. It's a lot of work but turns out great.
Later.

I posted this same question on a different board in this forum, then I saw the title "engine swap" & thought I should post it here.
Anyway my question is, would it be possible to put a fuel injected 5.0 from an '86 Grand Marquis (actually I put this motor in & the guy I bought it from said it was out of a T-Bird or a Mustang) and put that motor in a '86 T-Bird with a throttle body injected 3.8?
What do ya think????

I have a 2000 honda passport with a 3.2L V6 that has some maintenance problems. I also have a 91 Chevy pickup with a 4.3L V6 and am thinking puting the 4.3L inth the Honda. I was wondering if anyone knows how hard it will be to match the engine the the transmission, computer, wiring etc. Both vehicle are manual trans. Or am I better off looking for another Isuzu engine? I know Isuzu makes a 4.3L V6. The Honda passport was manufactured by Isuzu for honda.
