the car is wrecked. im buying it from a friend who buy salvage cars. so im getting the car for cheap just for parts since its not worth it to repair it.

eh... find a wrecked 98+. swapping the engine/tranny seems like a lot of work for such a little performance gain of the 97 V8

97 isn't worth the swap. 98+ or don't bother.

eh..97 is really best for the front, rear, sides, and ect. Nothing too amazing on the inside/engine..if it were a 98+ i would say go for it
