What are the challenges of adding a BBB to a Regal? What are the difficulties of putting a BBB in a G-Body Regal? Is any year easier or harder? Any special fabrication involved? What suspension modifications are required? What suspension modifications are recommended? I may want to build a car some day. G-Bodies are easier to find a (clean ones) than a 60s Skylark. Curious at this point of what is involved.
My brother Ratroaster lives in Boardman, and he's happens to be selling his 86 Regal 455. If you don't want to buy it, I'm sure he'll tell you all the horror stories of this project.
Hmmm, unlike other swaps I would say the cross member, motor mounts, headers and matching up your driveline seem to have few choices for vendors. I could be wrong. Nothing really out of the ordinary thou..
