my camaro is a 3.8 and i recently found a 99gran prix gtp with a 3.8 thats supercharged im wondering if i can swap engines or even just the supercharge and all the **** id need or if it would be a waste of time

 

Not without a ton of effort, rwd mount bosses are not present on the fwd block, and the throttle body is and the rear(opposite the belt) of the supercharger

 

thank you

 

put together a turbo set up with a good tune you can have over 400HP from the 3.8. My nephew ran over 500HP for two years before his trans went.

 

damn thats real good im debating on putting a ls1 in it this winter

 

From what ive gathered from asking around you can take the belt and top from the supercharged 3.8 and put it on ours, but it requires welding/fabrication etc. the 3.8's in the Grand Prix's and Buicks arent as similar as some people claim. They are in fact very different.

An LS1/LT1 swap is however much more difficult. To my knowlege that requires different fuel lines, possibly fuel pump as well, different motor mounts, relocation of certain parts, maybe some fabrication etc.

 

yeah i just want more power dont get me wrong the 3.8 is alright but after awhile u need more n if i do do a swap ill just find a wreck to do it from

 

If you have the money these motors can certainly handle a turbo charger
