    Hello Buick guru's ,
    So, I may switch gears as I have found a 62 skylark for 3k. But I would want to drop a 350 with th350 out of a 73 lesabre, Anybody know how hard this will be?? Thanks in advance.

    Lots and lots and lots of work! Tranny tunnel redo for starters, then the motor mounts. After you get done with those two things then comes more fun like the steering box and linkage will be in the way. Then the heater core will more than likely be in the way.

    Guys have done it, but it was NOT cheap or easy. Good luck!

    It did not look like something I wanted to try. was just curious before I bought either one. Thanks for the advise. Maybee I better stay with the 68 'lark and start with a 200r4 swp lol Thanks again
