swift13 Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 alright i have tried searching for a 3800 swap post and have found some stuff but nothing in full can someone either point me in the right direction with a link or explain exactly what is involved in putting a series II in my vert. i seen the orange cs with it so i know it can be done as well as a sedan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95 vert Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 I used a 00 l67 with 4t65 from a GTP. Engine and trans bolted right up. I had to change the throttle and cruise cables, use the Cutlass axle ends(hub side)to the GP axles ,change p/s hoses and fuel lines. I used a harness from a 99 lumina with a 3800 and had to move a few wires to match up at the bulkhead connector. I used fuel hose repair ends from the auto parts store. Regal p/s hose and an aftermarket downpipe w/cat for a regal.Slight clearance problem w/ the downpipe so I modded the floorpan. If you're just doin an l36 and no trans it will obviously be alot less work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

95 vert Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 I've only got pics of general installation. I don't have any specific pics as I neglected to take any during the swap . But if you decide to do the swap and have any questions I'll be glad to help any way I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ismellrealbad Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 if you get the strut assemblies with hub from a 98-99 z34 also they will fit 4t65e axles without modification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95 vert Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 Hey,Ismellrealbad, I didn't know that. this is a little off topic but did you get the wiring harness/pcm from Finken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ismellrealbad Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 nope, use car-part and copart finder. found a yard in oregon that had one and shipped it to me. theyre prettey rare. itll take you a lil while but you should be able to find one in a month tops.
