Thread: ideas for engine

i have a 2002 3.1L v6 i have been thinking if i should swap to 3.8 supercharged engine or try my best to modify the 3.1L?

its been done, the 3800 swap.

what swapping a 3.8 supercharged into a 3.1l engine bay?

sure.

a 3800 would be good swap. If only I could dump a 6.2 G8 engine into my Grand Prix... lol

I have a sc 3800 I'd sell you.

i admire how you try to sell that engine at every chance you see lol

I'm getting tired of it sitting in the garage. lol

Has anyone ever tried swapping the 5.3L GXP powertrain into a 97-03 GP?

What exactly is sitting in your garage?

His old L67 out of the trashed Green machine.

Gotcha!

anything wrong with the engine?

Not unless you call 200k + miles wrong. At least I think that's what he said in another thread.

Sure but putting a 5.3 in one has been done. Even a 4.6 Northstar in a GP has been done as well as a 5 speed manual trans.
