3800 Engine swap information

Recommended Posts

I know its my first post...

 

I searched this forum under the "Cutlass Supreme Convertible" category for the following keywords.

 

L67

L32

swap

GTP

 

And did not find anything.

 

I am trying to find out some information on a Cutlass L67/L36 swap into a Cutlass Convertible. I don't have Cutlass right now but planning on buying an 95 sometime in the future. My grandpa worked for Oldsmobile so they are dear to my heart. I currently own a 99 Olds Bravada and a 06 Saturn ION Redline.

 

I am trying to figure out which w-body platform would be a good starting point as donor vehicle. I am looking for a vehicle that is supported by HPTuners since I already own the software.

 

Assuming I would need to use the PCM from a HPTuners supported vehicle and adapt it to the Cutlass.

 

Does anyone know where I can start looking for more info?

 

I did several google searches and all I could find where some youtube videos of a L67 swapped cutlass.

 

Thanks for the help guys.

as a general rule of thumb, the convertible section is for vert specific issues, and powertrain in not one of them(it is the same as used in other w-bodies). you should be looking in powertrain, and this thread will be moved there soon.

 

it has been done. i want to say 94vert has done it into a vert, but others have swapped motors into other models, and the info will be the same.

Check out the forum, articles, etc. over at http://www.motorswap.org while you're at it. There's a lot of L67 swap info over there.

 

I am looking for something specific using an ECU/PCM from an HPTuners supported vehicle in a non HPTuners support vehicle.

 

Do you have a link of any examples?

I have a 99 Monte/lumina harness if you are interested.

 

I might need it. I am still trying to get a hold a Brian T. I need to know if I can tune a 95 Cutlass with HPTs after a L67 swap.

If you use a (preferably for harness pin match) a 99 GTP/Regal GS PCM it should be tunable.

 

Repin the ODB port and use a GTP PCM? Right? Will there be any problems registering the vin with HPTuners?

 

Sorry I am still reading up on this swap. :)
