I don't think it will fit. You will have to change to the MacPherson strut front suspension from the FX. One big reason they run struts is because the V8 didn't fit with the double wishbones.

if you wanted a V8 shoulda bought a Z06 itd come out to the same price, and be properly setup to handle it.
not a flame, but it is a very fine line where a modified car your no longer improving on the origonal car but instead creating something new. when you replace the engine I dont think itd even be a Z anymore, after suspension, your closer to a FX45 with a Z shell than a Z with an FX45 engine...
