I suppose it could be done, but you would have a lot of head aches doing this. First thing is the computer and wiring harness to make it run. You must have a V6 in it now. You may have to change out the trany also. Then to figure out how to hook everything back up, like trany linkage, exhaust, cooling system. The computer and wiring harness would take care of hooking it up to run. Lots of things to work out.

Yeah, you can do it- people are putting the LS engines in everything- buy a copy of hot rod magazine and look at all the LS engines in those cars- just do your homework-

You sure can. You'll need to change over to rear wheel drive though. Unless of course you replace everything with a Tornado front wheel drive assembly and if it's an "88 or newer, the bell housing already has the bolt pattern for the Small block. Better check that out. Gonna be a LOT of work, but I don't care, that's exactly what I'm doing with My '05 Monte. I'm leaving the 500 in it though. Best of luck friend. Rigger.
