now now i have a 1995 3kgt sl and i wanted to get more power and we have a 2001 dodge dakota v8 4.7 and i was wondering if it is possible to do a enigne swap with the 2 and if possible how much will it cost and i dont imagine it will be cheap

That one thats in there now.
 
If you wanted more displacment then bore it out. Thats expensive.
 
Why would you want to do all that work to a non turbo FWD 3kgt?

yes it IS possibile but not feasable...there is a guy from stl that has a 440 cubic inch beast of a v8 under his hood...and its RWD.

It would be retardedly difficult and expensive... it would defenatly be at a risk to the car... if you screw up (and your likely to) the car is trash

Theyve been bolting tube frame front ends on muscle cars for years..  It can be and has been done.

Like the other thread...I'll ask; How deep are your pockets?

it depends i can do some of the engine work but i would muchhhhhh rather pay some one else but if u sayin the swap all in all would cost around 6 G's or 7 G's max i can do it but if it is more then that i would jsut rather buy a new car lol
