V8 swap in 1 day is it possible?

[jmmx258]

i got a couple of drive shafts that wont be a problem neither will thhe cooling. its a 305 chevy. i thought you still need mounts for the 4.3 i know the tranny will still bolt up.

I'm saying if the truck had already been a 4.3 you wouldn't need to get dif. mounts. Your 2.8 trans will not bolt up to a SB if thats what you were saying if not I stand corrected. The bellhousing from a 2.8 to a SB are way different. The 2 bolts on either side of the housing go up at an angle inward on one, and are directly over top on the others, and the upper 2 bolts are farther apart from one, than the other. I'm not 100% sure right now as i'm tired as hell from the christmas day past. lol.

Edit: also if IIRC the SB trans bell comes to somewhat of a point that the top where as the 2.8 trans will be a straight line from bolt to bolt on the upper 2 bolts.

the trans part i got a tranny its a th350 the 2.8 wont work cause it is a 60 degrees v6 4.3 is a 90 degrees along as the SBC motors. what im saying i though you still need swap mounts. cause the motor mounts have to forwar alittle. im pretty knowledgeable on my swap, i know all about the trannys
