The ONLY way I would attempt this swap is if I could buy a wrecked v8 Camaro and swap EVERYTHING from one car to the other. Then its a cake job, even the vin wouldn't really matter unless you have emission's then you would need to find someone willing to reprogram the vin if thats possible. I'd check that 1st. Good Luck
The OP posted in 2015. Marlon who posted in this did do a successful swap and has a write up on how to do it.
