Rusty Bomb Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 what are the things i need to watch for when upgrading my 1988 truck engine thats in my z now to a newer 1999 or 2002 camarro engine? although the car came with a 350 built with atleast top end and a 350tubo trans with slap shifter. It sucks alot of gas and was thinking of something just as powerful with better milage. I can care less if it has a stick or auto as this is a play car. Is it an easy R&R type job since it already has a v8 in it? ( I bought the car built and ready to drive. the guy never knew about the car so i have no idea what is in it now. The motor in there now has elderbrock top end stuff. yet i don't know the HP or 1/4 times. Does amost 3k at 60mph tho. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 You will need different motor and tranny mounts. Check out john's cars kit. You will not be able to use the mounting kit that is In the car now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
