Hey Amanda,
so they have covered most of it, but with a GT Trans (an S54) you will need all of the GT engine mounts and brackets. that means the three trans mounts (left top, front, and rear.) and then you will need to modify the car body to allow the usage of a GT right side mount. people have gone the route of drilling the frame and putting in two massive heavy duty bolts through, and I have also seen someone cut that section of body and weld in an actual GT mounting section. the ST205 engine is the best overall for the swap as stated, and has more power than a 2nd gen. the wiring can be an issue, but people will make the harness plug and play so its super easy to install. besides all the small amount of other GT parts you will need for the swap that about covers it... again, this covers a lot of info, keep looking at it though, people will suggest stuff that actually turns out to be better and I go back and edit it. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=83732 Kevin |
