1) I've done the swap
2) It's a pain in the butt
3) You WILL have to cut your tunnel (alot)
4) If I did it over, I'd go Borq Warner T-10.

E-mail me with any questions if you go ahead with the toploader swap, but the T-10 is much easier fit, ive heard. -CP

: After riding in my friend's 1998 Z28 SS, i've decided a couple of things:

: 1) My maverick will NEVER be that awesome.

: 2) I'm going manual. Three speeds just won't cut it, and i've got some money now so i'd like to get a 4speed toploader.

: I'm sure that there are a lot of people who've done the swap...are there ANY problems? I would like to put a 351W, MAYBE a 302 on it.

: So, basically just looking for any tips, i have a 69.5 so my tranny tunnel ISN'T like the later years (that was my main concern).
