Default 88 LX 4cyl to 351 stroker (Ca

Hi, I found an 88 LX Body ($500) for my conversion. However, I am going to go with either a 408-427 stoker motor carburated and this car will only be driven on weekends and cruises. How hard will this conversion be??? Will I have to change to back brake lines when I install the 8.8 rear end??? What will be my hardest challenge??? Thanks<IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">!!!

just doing it and doing it right. do rush anything. if it doesnt fit the back up and try again. the brake line should be fine. the 88 lx should already have an 8.8 rear end. it just may not be posi or limited slip.
