I've swapped different size motors in cars before.. so I'm wondering, can you take a V6 from a GT and put it in a GS? I've seen people do crazy things, and I don't care how much work it takes, i'm just wondering if it's possible, not improbable.

ANYTHING is possible... no reason for that not to be... just expensive and pointless... how about "Practicaly impossible'?

I was going to buy a conversion kit for my ford focus to put a V8 351 stroker motor in it. converting to RWD as well. And for that no cutting all bolt on! but its really expensive.
