I suppose it depends where you live. If I could find a rust-free good-bodied 108 with a bad engine that didn't cost me $1000 to ship from Cali & I bought for say $500, it'd be worth doing the engine swap from mine. But in other areas, that isn't the case. Personally if I were going to go through the effort of swapping an engine & trans I'd probably throw in a 5.0 or 5.6 m117 instead and just swap the 4.5 rear in.
