8 lug to 5 lug rear end swap

I plan on changing my C20 to 5 lug running gear and have a line on some parts, I was just wanting to know how much extra work we're lookin at.

The 5 lug rear end is out of a 70's nova: will we need to move the spring pockets?? or does anyone know if they will bolt up.

The front is out of an impala and we know there will be some fabricating to do in order to make that work. (both of these are out of his old stock car)

Any input and info would be great as to how much more of a headache this will be, or if I will luck out.

I want this monster to move and this front/rear end combo is already rebuilt with racing components and can handle some power.

Thanks again!
