Boosted Falcon

Hi Guys,
I have just picked up a tidy 1992 EB Fairmont. A real nice drive. Was wondering what do I need to do to drope a 289 or 302 into Her and which would be the better, as a general drive car.
I've been told either go strait in behind the existing trans, and no need to do front end, bar the brakes.
Nothing wrong with the 6, but thought in the next year, would like to turn Her into an 8.
Any advise would be Greatly received.
Cheers from Craig.

Why you wanting to go an 8? and what you got planed for the car?

After recently doing this you need motor and trans, complete engine bay wiring and dash wiring aswell as instrument cluster, ecu, and you will need to change the K-frame as the V8 mounts are different on the actual K-frame/crossmember

brakes are identical 6cyl to v8 but you can change the booster factory V8 came with the XR double diaphram ones for a bit more oomph

good luck as it aint a small job

Schmee saw how fun it was doing it . He did Phatel car.
Check the build thread

stuff that seems like a lot of work for little to no gain.

Lol, still hardly worth it.

the only way i would do it is if it was going to have a 5.4L quad cam with a kenne bell.
