Hey guys, i need your help...
I am 16, and currently drive a 75 1.8 that i began restoring two years ago. I have decided that I have gotten that car where i want it and need a new project. After seeing all the V8 threads I really want to do a v8 conversion also. The only thing stopping me...my father. He likes the idea, but just thinks that is going to be wayyyy to much money and way too much fabrication.

SO...I need you guys to help me by telling me how much fabrication is really involved...besides cutting up the front for the radiator. Also if you guys could give me a rough estimate for money...just to get the car running...the least expensive way to do a v8 conversion. I really want to do this project, and hopefully I (we) can convince him. THanks alot...anything would help.

-Peter
