will a 05 grand prix motor fit in a 95?

Nooooooooo!! Not without some major modifications. Welcome by the way.

the above is not really correct, physically a 3.8 will drop right in, a 1st gen w-body mounting is the same as a 97 and above, you would have to do an obd 2 swap using a 98-99 3.8 monte/ lumina wire harness and a throttle body adapter to use a cable throttle body (along with throttle cable, and other 3.8 specific parts)

i had a 3.8 turbo in my pontiac montana and it bolted right in, i did the swap in a couple days, with a donor car it makes things simple (especially if u get ut hands on a 98-99 lumina as u will have all the hoses and everything.

ps if you dont believe my 3.8 turbo montana--- i have many many more pics of this van aswell

Guess i wasn't totally correct, there was a guy on our local forum, and it seemed like a never ending job. Killer montana, what a sleeper. Any track or hp #'s on it?

i ran a bunch of 13.4s@ 105 with it on 12-13psi, it did 312whp (stock montana trans and no engine mods, i seriously did this as a bet that i could not do it, i won the bet a week later)

Hahaha What a strange setup, bet he felt a bit stupid.
