Answer
Mr. Vega,

Both jobs require a lot of technical know-how and equipment to perform, besides thousands of dollars in equipment and parts. Neither job is feasable. On both cars you would have to do MAJOR and EXTENSIVE body modifications to put those big motors in those cars. Besides everything there, you would also need to change the suspension to handle the bigger and heavier motors. Hope that this helps and if you need further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact ne. Good luck.
