I own a 76 cosworth vega and plan on swapping the 122ci 4 cylinder for a 3.8 buick supercharged. The car already has an upgraded suspension and 3" dual exaust from when i had a 350 in it. Im planing on swapping the engines this summer when I paint the car but am unsure of what transmission if any will fit the 3800 series 2 engine and can handle the 320 hp it puts out. I believe the manual 5 speed camaro transmission off an 96 v6 also with the 3800 series 2 will fit, and my car has the 3.73 gears that the transmission is set up for. Can anyone tell me if the 96 3.8L camaro transmission will bolt up to the engine or anything else that will.

Dingy is right. The bell housing mount bolts are quite possibly different. Although chevrolet did use a 3.8 I don't think it si the same block the "BOP" people used. which would mean you need an adapter which any high performance shop should have or be able to get for you at a nominal fee. but you will have to figure motor mounts out because they weren't mounted like standard rear wheel drivers were. Good luck otherwise that will be a sweet ride.

relies upon on what you're searching for. usually Park Avenues have the two a three.one million Liter, 3.4 Liter, or 3.8 Liter V-6 engine, which provide you sufficient reaction and power at accepted gas mileage. on the different hand, the shop away from Neon little doubt has a 4-cylinder engine, which provide you much less power and reaction yet extra advantageous gas mileage. Then, you will desire to think of approximately variety, indoors, etc... in case you will desire to %. between the two, i could would desire to pass with the Park street. besides the shown fact that the a/c would want artwork, you're transforming into a automobile that has shown reliabilty. additionally, factors are often extra low-priced and issues are much less annoying to repair (purely my opinion persons.)
