Hey I was wondering if a 3.5 would fit in a 3rd gen. Will the motor mounts and tranny bolt up or is it just not worth the trouble

The reason I ask cause my buddy has a 3rd gen with a blown motor he is willing to give away

 

There's a thread the the 3rd gen forum that was talking about this.

someone did it a while ago, or at least said that had, but i have no idea who it was
