Default Doing a K8 motor swap to a Opel GT.

Hello all, I have been looking at doing a KLZE swap in to my 71' Opel GT, but the K8 sounds so much better, and the stock rear can handle the power so less swaping.

One thing I have to ask, you can put a K8 to a MX6 trans right? Guys who have done the Miata KLZE swap have used RX7 bell housing on the trans and it works, just wanting to check that the K8 and KL are the same size.

I am looking to try and get 150-160 out of it, don't want or need to push the motor to much. How much work would I need to do this? little porting, cold air intake, exhaust should be right about there right?

If you guys dont mind helping, send links of good K8 threads. Build ups and what not I would really appreciate it. Just keep them NA

You know the look of that car mixed with the note of that motor will be awesome!

Thanks for your time guys, tell me what you think.
Zane
