i did a V6 to V8 conversion, but from VS to VS.
as EYY said, im not 100% about VL V8 but VN to VS K-Frame will bolt up.
only things i think* you will need to worry about are: (but i could be wrong unless youre going aftermarket anyways)
- Headers
- Exhaust
- Cluster (i know in the VS i had to use the dash from the V8 donor, cant remember exact reason why, someone will know i thinks its the revs or speed sensor)
- TH700 Auto (only added this because the VN box wasnt elec controlled. but with all the VS gear it should recognise it. with my stato i used a VN box with factory kick down cable, but i modified it to fully manulised)
But from memory
- EFI 5.0
- ECU
- K Frame
- Master cylinder
- Cold air intake
- Engine Loom
- Radiator
- Tail shaft
- V8 accelerator cable
will all slip in.
also when going through the trouble of doing this i would buy all this gear aswell for it
- New engine mounts
- New crossmember mount for the gearbox
- new plugs
- new leads
- New dizzy cap
- Coolant for the radiator
- new Pulley belts
- New Panel Filter
- Flush the radiator
- clean the throttle body out
- Dump the oil and put new gear in
- Service the tranny, can buy tranny service kits if its a auto.
over all, the car came out with the motor, so you arent modding things to fit, it should go in snug
