Can you install a v8 into a v6 camaro?

technically yes, but with the money you will spend it isn't worth it. you would have to get the new engine, motor mounts, pcm, wiring harness, etc. and when your finished you will still have the v6 rear end, suspension, and rear drum brakes. even with the v8 engine it will not handle or perform like a stock v8.

What is difference between core and processor?

A processor, or more commonly a CPU, is an individualized processing device. It may contain multiple cores. A core is a bank of registers and dedicated cache structure that performs all of a processor's tasks, but is not an entire processor. For example, more multi-core processors have a separate array of logic functions that are not integrated with the core, such as the Memory Controller in AMD Phenom and Phenom II processors. There is one (or two, in the Phenom II) memory controllers total for the processor, reguardless of the number of cores. Think of a 'core' as a cylinder in an engine. A V8 enginer has 4 'cores', but the engine is the 'processor'. You can have a V12 or a W32 or a V4 or any of another combination, but there's only one processor. However the number of cores can greatly influence the overall power and capability of the processor.
