How hard/easy is it to swap a V8 engine onto a v6?? And how much would you estimate the cost to be??

Probably cheaper and easier to trade in and get a GT then have to go through all that work/hassle and problems.

I would concour with Jon. Its not just the engine that needs swapped, but transmission, rearend, you'd prob want to upgrade to gt suspension and brakes.

+1, swapping from the 4.6 V8 to a larger V8 wouldnt be that big of an issue, but v6 to v8 is pretty complicated, IIRC

I'd like to get a 5.4 and stick in twin super chargers like the lightning pick up !

It wouldn't be too hard if you like the work. Otherwise it would be a pain. On top of the tranny and rear you would need to upgrade the suspension, need a new k-member if Im not mistaken, and a GT wiring harness. But if you enjoy doing that stuff, go for it!

$3600 ... that is how much a complete 2008 GT drivetrain is going for on local craiglists. 11K miles .. includes engine, accessories, all wiring, PCM, exhaust, manual tranny setup, etc ...

I would buy it but already have S/C on my 4.0 ....
