    It will probably take more than a weekend. If you check the tech articles there is one for doing the I6 to V8 conversion. Lots of baseline info there, and a little more of the specifics can be found with some more searching. As for the cable clutch, there's some pretty good info on that too. I used a Mustang Steve kit. Pretty straightforward. Just have to weld the quadrant to the top of the clutch pedal and use some form of reinforcement on the firewall.

    Here's the link to the list- http://mmb.maverick.to/showthread.php?t=4581
