3.8 Tpi???

I have a 92 Buick Regal Grandpa Edition with a 3.8 TPI FWD engine. This thing has soooo much *****, its incredible. It pulls as hard as my TPI Z28 did. My question is, has anyone ever tried to mate the TPI set up on one of these engines to any other V6's? Would it work? I'm probly going to be junking the car soon and I would definitely be interested in trying to mate the TPI set up to a V6 with RWD. Does anyone know if this intake and everything else will fit on any other 6 cylinders? Or is there a 3.8 that had RWD that I could use this on?

in principle, anything is possible, but whether it will be a simple drop in job or if there will be a bunch of mods that will have to be made, I personally don't know.

if you're going for a "project" type of thing then its up to you what you want to do
if you're going for the quickest performance, then the cheapest/quickest way to get it is to drop in the strongest V8 from the same/similar year.
