The L6 has rear motor mounts riveted to the frame in the rear. You will have to drill or cut these out if going to any V8. You will also need to use the frame stands off of the Sub. THat is the + of having the whole donor vehicle. For instance, if you pulled only the engine, you will ALWAYS think of something else you need, usually just after you pass the half way back home point, such as the V8 engine wiring harness.
