Once Skycap gets into a V6 swap, he should be able to confirm or deny this, however, it could be a big factor for the DIY person. The LSX and V8 swaps require moving underhood components around, some alterations to the steering system, and some alterations to the chassis. Not sure how the V6 will compare, but if it avoids some of these issues it has the potential of being considerably easier.
