don't quote me on this Mike but i think your model is a little more forgiving when swaping a big block from small block..close to the same with a 1st gen camaro....keep in mind also when you take factory small block car and place a big block in the car you normally have to change the front springs to a stiffer "big block" spring or your front end will sag..

Good luck
