You are undertaking one of the most difficult engine swaps possible in the Fox bodies.

The K member on the 3.3L inline 6 is different than all the V cars, and the 2.3L. You'll need to change the K member, the tranny (C3 I'm guessing), the rear end (6.75"?), and the engine.

I've seen the end result, but the person who did it, (my dad) said he wouldn't have if he'd had known how much work it was going to be.

I'd get a different car.

Capri 306 had a 3.3L car and he's got a 302 now, but I can't remember if he actually did the swap with the 3.3L car and not a different one.
