LQ1, L26, 95 cutlass Sedan, 95 Vert, and a 282... what to do?

Ok here is my situation.

 

I have two cars:

95 Cutlass Sedan with 100k LQ1 motor (rebuild trans) Daily driver & 95 Vert with 45k miles.

 

I have following parts:

L26 with 21K

All the parts including wiring harness to do 3800 swap in either vehicle while being able to keep the 4t60e with 3:41 Gear ratio.

282 with all parts to do swap.

 

So, would you leave the Vert with 45k miles alone and just drive it or put the 3800 (L26) in it?

Put the 282 in in the Vert or the Sedan?

 

Or buy different W body with other option?

 

Thoughts? What do you do when you have so many options? thanks.

Sell the L26 to L67 swingers for lots of money.

 

Keep the others for a long long time.

Those are both real nice cars, I'd have a tough time doing anything to either one. I'd hunt down a solid vert with a blown engine and make it a 5-spd vert.

I don't know why I didn't mention this before but I think I assumed one of your cara needed a trans. After doing the 5 sped swap on the gtp I would never 5 spd swap a Wbody unless trans needed to be replaced. Especially when needed to replace the firewall plate.

It's a lot work to do
