I have a 72 GT and have been considering a 4.3
swap with a automatic probably a 200R4. Was hoping
someone might be familiar with this swap maybe particular
engine mounts to possibly bolt in the engine.Also
exhaust would like to have headers.Would be very greatful
for any advice or tips on this swap before I go
blindly into it.

I checked with Don Hardy on the kit and was told
they did not have one and never did make one for this
swap.I am familiar with Don Hardy because I recently
bought one of the narrowed 12 bolts from them for
another Vega project.

You wouldn't believe how embarassing it is to
give out "bum gouge" (Old Navy term for
misinformation) I swear I saw the Chevy V-6 KIt in one of Hardy's
old catalogs. Maybe it was for the 2.8 liter, oh
well, sorry for the mislead man.

Thanks for the interest in the V6 swap I asked
about but I am looking for possible kits or mounts and
headers that would work for swapping a 4.3 Chevrolet V6
into a 1972 Vega GT.I hoped to find parts that would
work before making everything that will be
needed.Thanks
