    Default VN 5.0L into VS ecotec V6

    hey all
    i got a vn v8 commodore wreck which i want to use to convert my vs v6 into a V8. I wanted to know if any1 could tell me what i would need to get it converted into my car and what i could use from the VN to go into the VS. I live in QLD so if any1 knows the specific requirements needed for it to be done legally that would be great. both cars are manual not sure what the VN has but my VS has a T5 in it. any info is much appreciated

    You have everything you need right there, anything that's different gets put in the VS . There's heaps of thread listing what to swap but it's only the obvious stuff
