I've built my 87 B2 and have been quite happy with it. But I recently acquired a 5.8 out of a 91 E-250 van and want to swap it into my B2. What issues will I have fitment wise and what parts can I re-use? Specs on the B2 are : 94 302 L&L longtubes 2.5" y pipe to single 3" exhaust. performer rpm intake edelbrock 600 carb. Art-Carr c-4 kevlar bands and clutches. stock t-case 9" rear with 31 spline shafts detroit locker and a stock 35 out of a 94 explore in the front.
My plans for the motor would be 500-550hp with an additional 150 shot of spray. I realize the fuel system would need to be upgraded and a new torque converter would be a good idea, but, fitment wise and frame strength are the issues I'm not sure of
