That would be Cam Brown (Flying with V8 Eagles) but AFAIK, he never sold a 
kit. He was my ex-wife's neighbor in BC. (He'd love the '82 Spirit hatchback 
I have now. Tempted to dig a crossbar out of the locak junkyard and install 
the '77 AMX 304 into it, but I already have a good 4.2L awaiting the EFI and 
2wd AW4 I got for it)

There was a guy in Canada that put a V8 in an Eagle and was
selling kits
to drop in the V8.....

Putting a V8 into an Eagle requires that the front diff
be a non ' shift on the fly ' version > from a 1980 Eagle.

Eagles got the 'shift on the fly' version in 1981 - it has
a 'bump' on the housing that will hit the pan rail of the
engine block - so you'll want a Full Time 4wd front diff.

I'd then get a set of the Bulltear.com 6 to V8 swap mounts
to work with.

Check the 'Flying with V8 Eagles' article for the other
parts required - like the passanger side 'Log' style 
exhaust header from a V8 Grand Wagoneer.
