    When I get the 302 in place, do I simply extend the factory 200 wires and hook them exactly to thw same places as it was before the swap? Etc....same coil wire to same place....same all the rest?

    Anything I need to know about before I do this? Thanks again guys, just trying to be ahead of the game.

    The connections are all the same, but because the location of things like the coil, temp and oil senders, are in different spots between the I6 and V8, you will need to either modify the I6 wires or get the right V8 wires. It is all easily swapped around.
