LM7 into a 92 Firebird
Stock V8 (90-92 V6 uses same rad) and single fan setup
Just about all of the original parts not directly related to the engine/trans were reused
Driveshaft, rear, brakes, suspension, K-member(no notch), steering, dash, gastank, etc all original
I could have upgraded just about all of that, but the stock stuff worked fine and anything else would be an additional cost. Beginning to end, this swap was under $2,000

A little planning and some bargain hunting goes a long way doesn't it? 
It took over 9 months to assemble all the parts to do the swap. 90% of the parts are used or DIY
Someone wanting to do the swap quickly can forget any sort of budget constraints or bargain hunting
