    Just curious on thoughts about possibly dropping the 5th gen eaton on my car. How complicated it may be. whether or not i need to do anything to the valvetrain. And what all is required as in modifications to make it work. I plan on doing this over the winter sometime in January after I get my tax return. Also anywhere that I may be able to pick one up Ebay? obviously. but any alternative sites? thanks let me know how ya'll feel about this any input is great.

    It's called a topswap... They require a fair amount of work but aren't overly complicated with a simple set of tools and some patience.

    You can find what you need at an auto recycler via car-part.com or used on the forums.
