Thats it??? WTF man, read whole thread waiting for some kill stories and burnout vids, want to do this swap to a C4 too but with more cubes such as stroking a 4.8 to a 383 or a LQ4/9 to a 402/408 or L92 to 427, all motor with a manual would be seriously fun to drive, but if I want to street race with it, I will go auto and spray it too!!! The manuals had DANA 44 rear ends, the autos had DANA 36's, so if your going to put big power in front of it and its an auto car from birth, after you blow the rear end, go get one from a manual car!!!
