How hard is this? I've been searching but really haven't found all that much info. I wouldnt think it would be that hard on like an 04 V6 or something? just kinda curious. I figure on a GT things needed would be Motor,tranny, wiring harness, tune, splice in for intercooler pump and ???

The V6 has a 7.5" rear end, so you'd have to do a rear end swap to for either IRS or 8.8" solid axle. Other than that, I hear it's pretty feasible. You'd probably need a fully dressed engine though, because the alternator is in an awkward position, as are other various parts.

think i could do the swap with about 9k-11k to spend? Me and my friend could do the work.

It depends if you can find a donor car. That does seem feasable though, as long as you are doing the work yourselves I think a full drivetrain could be had for that price range
