It's been done before. You can fit a lot of engines in a thirdgen bay. I've never done it...try doing a SEARCH for old posts about it.

it literaly drops right in. The 400 trans will need a new crossmember and driveshaft,and a way to mount the torque arm. I did this in my 82 and I will never put a small block back in it.Headders are the biggest hassel of the entire swap.
