I know the feel of a V-8 in my Aurora and it is a hell of a lot heavier than my Alero. It would be a bullet. I am not worried about the price tag, I have pissed away money in worse ways.

bah, not worth it for a v8 in an alero with what it would cost
thats about as dumb as a lift kit and mudders on a camaro. or even worse, 22's on a rusted out caprice. they just dont go together
