I have the engine, tranny, computer, and radiator from a 1990 grand prix mcclaren. I also have a 2000 regal ls with the 3.8 vs none super charged i need to know if the tranny from the 90 grand prix will fit in my 2000 regal ls?

It will physically fit, but that will be beginning and ending of it.

 

Short answer, No. will not work.

Long answer, if you *really, really* wanted to and had the means to mess with the PCM.... maybe?

What would i have to do to make this possible i know it is a long stretch but low on money and cant afford a new tranny

 

Don't even bother. Whatever you could cobble together would likely not work for very long at all, if at all. The transmission in your McLaren is vacuum controlled, and the transmission in the Regal is electrically controlled.

 

Protip: put the engine/trans on Craigslist for $500. I guarantee that shit will sell for at least $400 and that's enough to grab a decent mileage 4T65E from a pick'n'pull yard.

  1. Sell the TGP parts.
  2. Use money from TGP parts to buy 4T65E trans at a yard or Craigslist.
  3. Install new trans in Regal
  4. Enjoy.

 

The transmissions are different in the 1990 GP and 2000 Regal. There's no point of getting the trans to work, especially considering that the 4T65 is a better transmission and is more beefed up than the 4T60. Everything you spend on that "swap" would come out to be more than a decent 4T65E from a yard.
