Iam in the process of doing it right now, I found a 3.8 with a automatic transmission, So far i have extended the rear cage 12".. The frame work where the motor mounts sit are ok just a little beefing up is required. The only problem i can see is the wireing from a 4 C. to a V6 fuel injected

Chop , Cut , Rebuild.
