all cavs are big block so yes the legs will bolt straight on. dont buy "turbo" legs tho or you'll ay the turbo tax. get cav v6 stuff

You dont even need to fit the legs can just swap the hubs, need new bearings but probably good idea anyhow. Also the rears assembly just 4 bolts on and off.

When i did my mk3 astra 1.7 td isuzu to 5 stud i used cav V6 stuff the rears are a straight swap but you might have to play around with different handbrake cables if you don't have rear discs already. For the fronts i just swapped the astra legs for the vac V6 legs - i have the F18 box btw
