I'm putting in a crate motor and will be selling the crossfire engine or parting it out. Let me know what you need, with an offer, send PM and I'll get back to you ASAP. 
All thats left is the intake manifold, the electric fan, and the fan shroud.
I can deliver within about 100 miles of NW Jersey.
Here is photo of engine:
Thanks,
Dave

Did it fit under the '82 hood?
What about the electric fan on the rad.

Well, it "kinda" fit under the hood; probably depends on the intake you choose and the riser height... I used an Performer RPM manifold w/ a Holly carb and had to "notch" the back of the x-fire internal scoop to clear a K&N filter w/ top breather (small diameter..almost looks like the old L-88 setup).  There's not a whole lotta clearance but it will work!!
The fan should work just great as long as you nab the temp sensor off the x-fire block (or get a new one) and use it on the crate engine...should be a plug on the new block that goes into the water jacket that you can unscrew and screw in the sensor.

I just got home from the Chatterbox, it was the last night, man was it packed!
I'm not sure when I'll start, maybe in a week or so.
By the way, the cruise night that was in Flanders will be moving to the Rockaway Mall next year. They are having an un-official one next Wed. night, in the Linens & Things parking lot. Go in the entrance by the Olive Garden and make a left and it's the first lot on the left. I should be there.
If I don't see you there have a good winter!
Dave

Hey Dave
 
                 Eurodesk here, I had to go with a different hood on my car for
 
                 two reasons, first the stock hood with the 4" K&N filter would
 
                 not fit and even with the new hood I had to go with a thiner
 
                 K&N filter. The second reason is Your new Engine puts out 
 
                 more heat so the hood I have has vents and screens in it to
 
                 let out more heat. I had a single Electric fan on my stock Engine
 
                 but when I switch to this engine it did not cool sufficiently, so I
 
                 went to a BeCool system with dual fans. Your stock Radiator
 
                 my not be sufficient enough to cool your new power plant.
 
                 I would check it out while you have the car apart.

For the air cleaner you can use a drop base. I've seen the plate in Summit. Ken (lost in the 60s) used one on his metal bumper '70 ? I think.

I have a guy that wants the whole engine, but if that does not pan out I'll let you know.
I have not started any work on it yet, had some delays, had some surgery so I hope to get it going soon.

I did the "BeCool" on the cheap.  Same results as Eurodesk.  Never goes above 190.  All I did was got a dual fan kit (comes with it's own thermostat which threads right into the block in place of the old one, on at 190 and off at 160), had my original radiator cleaned out and soldered up, installed a 160-degree thermostat, installed a new water pump which advertised 30% more flow, added a new alternator for the amps drawn by the fans, and new hoses.  While I was at it, I removed the vacuum-powered heater core valve and installed a ball valve from Lowe's so I can shut it off with confidence.  The fan kit allowed me to discard the space-consuming fan shroud and toss the old electric fan, which was only marginally effective with a clogged old radiator.  I also added a pilot light on my dash so I can tell when the fans are running (if I can't hear them at speed), right next to a lighted rocker switch so I can manually run the fans, which is essential when the AC is on.  I put these two items on the bottom edge of the dash just to the left of the center console.
Looks great and performs even better.

I'm with you fcepquam! You can have that carb, I'll take fuel injection anytime. We might not beat anybody at the drag strip, but we can turn the key and it will start with out pumping the c#%p out of the pedal.

A little grinding inside the intake manifold makes a lot of difference in response and power.

You have to balance the throttle bodys to get good idle and off throttle response so you don't have hesitation.
 
You should check out the Crossfire Injection Forum for any qusstions you might have.
