Mother of all swaps...4thgen guts into thirdgen?

I'm not just talking about powertrain, I'm talking the whole friggin thing. BCM, EBCM, PCM and drivetrain, body harness, everything. Anybody ever consider doing it? I dont see why it wouldn't work...dash swaps have been done, and I've done a successful ABS swap (PITA!). Obviously people have used LT1 powertrains in thirdgens. Why not the whole enchilada? I know some wiring extending will have to be done to accomidate the 3rdgen's chassis...I'm seriously considering the newer fourthgen dash swap in my '86 like I did before with the early 4thgen dash...and I've already got a ton of LT1 parts...anybody forsee why this wouldn't work? Just get a '97 parts car if I want to go with the new dash...

And no, I dont want to buy a 4thgen, because I already have a '94 Z. I want something different, tasteful, and fast. I like modernizing cars with GM equipment. For those people who were about to ask!
