Hi all i have an 88 firebird with the 2.8l v6 with an auto tranny. i would like to drop in a v8, today i picked up an 81 silverado that was originally a 6.2 diesel and someone replaced with a 350. Will the 350 engine bolt up to the v6 transmission? The 4.3 litre v6 will bolt up to the 2.8L tranny as they are the same bolt pattern. Are the bolt patterns on the 4.3 and the 350 the same.
Will any of the other driveline stuff, driveshaft/rearend have to be replaced?
