Yes he is. Look in his registry. Some people have done it and there are some threads in here of it. The main one I remember is the one with the yellow cavalier with a V8 in it.
How far have you gone on it besides place the motor into the bay?

honestly, if i were to ever do a v8 cavalier, the only way i'd think to do it is with a complete tube frame, just mounting the cavalier body on the frame. the cheapest fastest i could think of waste money on a cavalier.

STICK THE V8 BEHIND THE DRIVERS SEAT, YOU CAN CONVERT A V8 FRONT WHEEL DRIVE TO A MID ENGINE REAR WHEEL DRIVE CAVI, YOU WILL HAVE TO MOVE YOUR GAS TANK, AND DO SOME SERIOUS FRAME WORK TO MAKE WORK, BUT THAT WOULD BE ONE BADDASS CAVI, THINGK ABOUT HEMI CAV , WOW I WOULD LOVE TO DRIVE IT
Just go ahead and post up the giant pics, those on high speed won't mind.
