life would be sweet if we could always get what we wanted but this is what i have got. has anyone here done this swap?

95 rivera 3800 sc into 96 olds cutlass supreme w/3100. i have both cars complete, and the wire harness and computer from a 98 monte w/3800. what else will i need.

I don't think anyone here has done this particular swap. There isn't enough of a gain to offset the trouble of a swap, which is what everyone here has been trying to tell you.

Sell the whole car and get a SII. There's no reason to install an inferior engine when there's a much improved version available.

will a s1 bolt in like an s2 then at least i could drive it until a s2 is available meaning when i can afford it. wiring should be nearly identical. if my persistance over this swap makes anyone upset imagine how mad they will be when an inferior motor blows thier doors off at the track.

well then.....get to work and get that Series I anchor swapped in there, bring it to the summer meet. I will be more then happy to give you multiple opportunities to "blow the doors" off of my bone stock car :thumb: ...could even throw a little $ on it if you wanted to make it interesting

You are wasting your time with a Series I. You already have OBD-II, just go get a Series-II and be done with it. You cannot bolt the Series II stuff right to the S1. We're not trying to be douchebags, we're telling you there's no reason to do what you're trying to do. You'd get arguably better gains out of a '96-97 LQ1 swap. Wiring is not identical, either.

 

And if you wanna race, take your pick of any of my cars. :wink:

so much tension in the forum. way to easy to get your blood pumping. settle down. found a 01 l67 out of a T(totally)G(gay)P(pontiac) oops, 65,000 miles on it with harness, pcm, and tranny, and axles for 650.00. no more boat anchor. any suggestions on some mods while the motor is out. port, polish, cam anyone. not a smart ass just having fun. how about a rear wheel driven 500 hp small block chevy driven 95 cutlass.

Not a smartass at all, never mind that it's "GTP"......

I understand the head flows worse than a turtle taking a dump. Port and polish the hell out of everything from the intake the exhaust. Get a larger exhaust system and a under drive pulley.

not that is what i call a positive response. thanks for the suggestions. anymore?

I pick the TGP as is!

i took your advise and suggestions and swapped in a L67 from a 97 LSS. Hd trans also. stock for now. hopefully i can afford a few mods later. all is complete except the wire harness mods. i am using a 99 monte 3800 harness any help on this would be appreciated :thumbsup:

Posted

Now Rob may want to chime in here... but I'm pretty sure LSSs with the L67 were exceedingly rare.

probally so. i have some friends in the salvage business and the car got t-boned by a UPS truck and caved in the whole pass side. it had belonged to a local public defender
