If you are seriously asking this question I doubt you have the know how to do the swap.

Anyway, as a clueless man myself i have also thought of the late model fwd 5.3 and if swapping is anywhere near feasable. In reality under the hood the impala isnt too huge minus the wheelbase. However any engine swap these days is near impossible with the hundered miles of wiring you need
