2 ways to go

alright heres the deal. I have a 94 camaro v6. and i bought a 93 camaro z28. its wrecked and the frame is bent. so i'm going to swap everything out of it and put it in my 94. I'm famous for not wanting to wait and just jump into things. this motor has 143,xxx miles on it, would it be better to just rebuild it now before putting it in mine? and also buying some longtube headers for it? i;d rather do that then have to mess with it later on. just wanting to know your thoughts. Thanks in advance!

well, hell yea man....if that engine is comming out the 93, take that thing apart, replace every old part, clean it, rebiuld it, and paint the damn thing to make it look sexy looking...and add some bolt ons maybe! roller rockers, springs, cam, lifters, pushrods..then youll love your v6-v8 swap...
it will be well worth it..

Yep, I totally agree. If you're going to have the engine out of the car, by all means rebuild everything on it now while you have this luxury to work with. I wouldn't skip on anything here, either.
