It depends. It's not easy but it's not hard if you have all the parts, time, and patience when new things pop up while doing the swap. First of all do you know what tranny youre going to use? If you use a older tranny itll be easier to hook up the speedo. Also I recomend you go with a corvette assembly bracket, alt, AC, and powersteering for space reasons. Will you go carb or FI? If carb itll be easier but a lil more expensive because youll need to buy the setup. Kmember should be fine. If you go FI itll be alot tougher. Painless makes wiring harness for people doing these typ of swaps to make it easier.
