    Lots of info on this man.

    Search...you can yank the motor...or drop the cradle and install it through the wheel well. Your going to need a tune...and headers...FOR SURE...and a smaller pulley to let that XP breathe...

    How much is your check? Plan on cam, springs, retainers, timing set, gaskets, headers, PCM with a tune for the cam, intake, etc. Pulling the motor would be worlds easier, however it can be done with dropping the cradle from the passenger side.

    What do you think...it is basically the heart of the engine...right in the middle...if your stock it isn't the first mod...try putting headers on first...if it takes you more than 8 hrs by yourself...your no where near a cam install.
