Ok so I was asking about a 97 l67 motor but found a great deal on a l67 out of a 98 Buick regal low miles so I going.with that so the question is what do I need to switch over now or will it be plug and play?

I can't think of anything that would make it any different than tossing in a newer one except the injectors.

Swap your alternator and alt bracket onto the L67. Get the wiring kit from ZZP or pull out the soldering iron and your map sensor will be all set. I think the injectors are different, so you'd need to change those connectors. Overall though..nothing an hour of work can't solve.

Ok so my injectors I just wire my connectors off my current motor on to.the l67? Can you go a little more into detail on what I need to solder?
 
Re: 97 l67 into a 02 gt

I'm pretty sure the connectors would be the same with the injectors. Unless using 04+ it uses the different EVO connections.
 
Re: 97 l67 into a 02 gt

L67 uses minitimer.

04+ uses USCAR.

01-03 L36 uses multec 2

97-00 L36 uses minitimer.

Map connector is different between L67 and L36.

However L32 MAP uses the same connector as L36.

Tiny tuner shows different offsets between L32 and L67. You'll have to ask someone whos used one if it reads accurately with the L67 settings.

As to their required settings in the PCM, I am unsure.
 
Re: 97 l67 into a 02 gt

Ok so injectors need to be changed can I just use my fulerail and injectors off my 02 n/a motor?
 


Re: 97 l67 into a 02 gt

That list was of the connector type, not the injector type.

You have to use the L67 rail or an aftermarket solution and you have to use L67 injectors or something at least of that flow rate or larger.

You need the injector connectors that will allow you to connect your injectors to the wiring harness.

Ok scratch that idea I found a real good deal on another motor out of a 1998 Buick regal lol so now the question is what will have to be changed if I go that route
 
Can you get the motor and pick some of the wiring harness apart? If so you need to clip the fuel injector connectors off the Regal harness, leaving about a pigtail of wire to work with, and the MAP sensor plug off the Regal needs to be clipped to. Splice those connectors to your 02 harness in your GP and you should be golden.

And you are getting the PCM right?
 
No I didn't get a pcm I was Gunna have my tuned so that should take car of that right? Also I didn't get a harness but I have a 02 gtp harness sitting here I can chop up the plugs are the same on that one for the injectors on the regal motor hopfuly the map is to
 


check the existing injector connectors on your harness in you car before you hack anything. Make sure they are different. Check the map sensor to, if you have to change it make sure you have enough pigtail to reach where ever you have to go.

Others can discuss the issues with the PCM, but I'd just contact intense or zzperformance, tell them your setup and get it from there just mail yours in for a core. Again, others can elaborate on that a bit more.
 
Picutres of one of your current injectors would answer the question. But I'm pretty sure they are the multec...which is why I brought it up. Really easy though.
