    What is the ease of swapping a supercharged L67 motor into a Grand Am GT? Just curious cause I think they look a lot better than GP's.

    If you live around Denver, make a trip to aurora on a friday night to the Car show at Hampden and Tower. There's a kid there with a GAGT that swapped in a G6 GXP motor with a GEN 3 supercharger on it. It looks ugly as sin. But it's kinda quick...

    I'm sure it's possible. You'd probably have to fab motor and trans mounts and figure out the wiring.

    I'd google search it.. I know it's been done a few times. See what info you can dig up.

    Agreeing with you. Nearly anything is better looking and more comfy than a GP.

    seems like the wiring would be the hardest part.

    For that, I'd grab pieces at a JY and make an adapter from the wiring harness for the engine to the car.

    wiring is easy, gauges are not that easy to hook up, if you can even do it. The GA dash runs on the pcm.

    Hmmm I'd look at some of the various years/models, bet you can get it. I remember the intrigue runs a lot of the cluster off the pcm. I think the Bonnevilles (00+) did the same, I'd bet the 04+ gp's do as well.

    Then you still need to sync the BCM.. Im sure you could find a magical combination, but good luck.
