Ok, heres a thought. I may have a deal on a modded TTA motor(500rwhp). How difficult would it be to swap it into my 97 ws6 6sp? I know im probably gonna get the "why would you want to do that!" but really why wouldnt I?

Turbo Trans Am - turbocharged 3.8L V6. Same as the one used in the Buick GN.

I could be very wrong here, but DO IT! That would be a one of a kind I'd think...plus then you can sell me the TAs current engine...lol. If I am correct, that is a 3.8 Liter then, and that is also the same size used in the v6 model correct? Maybe you just gotta get some v6 Firebird engine mounts and it's that easy...
