change suspension, cooling, trans (if its computer controlled) driveshaft, motor mounts...please

you think the v6 trans will work (won't bolt up) or teh motor mounts (again won't bolt up) you swap from a 6 to 8 and not do cooling your asking for trouble it will overheat eventually throwing all that money away, the driveshaft on teh v6 is pathetic, the suspension is unsafe (too much weight) if you don't do a swap correctly don't do it, the car needs to be safe
