Duramax???

[Camaromax]

First of all hello. I am a newbie on here but not a newbie to the car hobby. I have been visiting this forum as well as pro-touring.com for several years trying to decide what to do for my project. I am still probably a couple of years away from getting to actually do much with it unless I run into a bunch of money or something, but I would like to bounce a few ideas around off you guys and see what your opinions are.

A little background on me. My experience is mostly with gasoline powered cars. i previously worked at an automotive machine shop where we did a lot of dirt circle track and scca type engines. I have also helped build and maintain some dirt oval cars.

My question is has anybody here ever done or thought about doing a duramax swap into their project? I have seen this done a couple of times in magazines but can not seem to find very much information on the subject online. Does anybody have any information on doing this swap? The car I am considering is my 1980 camaro. I know it will take up a lot of room but I saw one in a Regal and I know I have a lot more room under the hood of my Camaro. So right now im just looking for information and bouncing around the pros and cons.

Sorry for writing so much.
Thanks for any info or input.
