How hard would it be for this motor swap?

[Sandman_GN85]

Alright I recently found out there is no way I can afford to fix my 85 GN, sucks because it was so perfect. I recently found a 1990 V6 Trans AM, white, with hefty 121k on it. They only made the 1990 model for half a year before they switched over to early 1991 models with the new nose, so it looks like the 89 TTA. Question is, how hard and or expensive do you think it wuold be for a mechanic to take my engine outa my GN and swap it into the TA? Its just a wild brainstorm I had while searching the want ads.

Wouldn't be that hard because you can use all factory parts. Motor mounts, wiring harness, etc. This would be a killer idea. Do it, dude!

I'm not real familiar with the TTA, but didn't they need to use different heads to get the hood to clear? Then again, maybe solid motor mounts would drop it enough. I don't know.

The motor will fit fine, I think its the AC that will have to go.
