Default How do I put a 5.0 in my 83' GLX Convertible?

I have a 1983 GLX convertible with a 3.8 essex (i think) and C4 tranny (i think). How do I go about putting a v8 in? somebody told me everything would pretty much bolt in?

A parts car is your best bet, getting everything you need piece by piece will be a major pain.
