Has anyone tried to do a V8 fwd swap? Really been thinking about doing it with an ls engine just need a donor car.

 

If I can recall, someone did a LeMons Maxima with a Northstar engine in the rear. I cannot remember if it was V8 or not.
You will be the first to put it into the front.

 

Not worth the work, do a turbo VG30E using custom manifolds or get a RWD chassis and drop in a Chev 4.8 or 5.3. Not worth cramming a Northstar or the like

 

i don't think it will fit since the two extra cylinder will take up the bay, and have very marginal space for the transmission, along with cv axles which you have to find that will fit in. its' way too much work and a lot of capital to do to make this work.

 

LS4 would probably go in pretty easy.

still not worth it.

 

I just did a full reman on my 92 SE. I have access to a full shop. It was so difficult, I dont think I'll ever do it again. Are you actually serious about doing all of that work? Have you ever installed an engine before?
