RE: new guy with a question
you need to look at it financially.....
to buy a cheap v6 and do the v8 swap will probably run you as much as just buyingthe v8 initially and doing some minor mods. Also in doing the v8 swap you will need to upgrade the front suspension, all kinds of wiring upgrades needed, exhaust upgrades....too much to list.

IF you can afford it buy a Z28 and a old beater honda or better yet a Geo Metro (3cyl.. incredible mpg) and beef the **** outta the Z with the money ur saving on insurance and gas... THEN u wont have to run the Z ragged with Daily driving. I woulda dont that if i had planned it out but now ive got insurance on my Z and no money lol. I would have liked to have gotten a 2nd MAYBE Carbbed 3rd gen and a beater DD and beef the Maro for weekends/summers and track runs.

A V8 swap into a V6 would cool if you have money, time, and another car to drive in the meantime. It may be as much money as buying an SS/Z28, but you could be getting a brand new engine in there.
