V8 swap into a g35 coupe?!

I was wondering what needs to be modified to allow the v8 to fit in my coupe 04. I did some searching on google but came up dry. I know its possible, I was just wondering if anyone out there has attempted the task of the swap? Any suggestions or websites on this topic would be awsome. Thanks.

serious inquiries

To avoid other pointless posts of "u shoulda/coulda..." and unresearched/ untested comments such as "but your handling will...", I'd like to entertain serious inquiries/ interest into G35-V8 swaps through email. Rest assured, once my build initiates I will post everything (from thot process to build pics) here as I've found this place to be a good resource for info.

(No personal attacks intended. Fact remains that such posts are pointless)

That being said, I don't really have the time/energy/patience to spoon feed somebody about what is required to do a general swap. If u are seriously interested (and rich enuff) but don't have the basic knowledge or have never done or even seen a swap process, please do at least some research before contacting me.

Regards,
