can I swap the 3800 series 2 out of my 97 camaro for 3800 series 3 supercharged
can I swap the 3800 series 2 out of my 97 camaro for 3800 series 3 supercharged
Will it fit right in? Is it possible to take the engine (3800 series 2) out of my 97 v6 camaro and put a 3800 series 3 supercharged in it? You can see this engine at crateenginedepot.com

No, not to my knowledge. If so it would take a LOT of work. The 3800 Supercharged engine came in: Bonevelle SSEi, Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, Buick Regal GS, Monte Carlo SS, and I think I'm forgeting one other. Anyways, all of these cars were front wheel drive. I believe it's in the engine bay sideways as well.

Powerdyne makes a centrifugal supercharger for your engine. Its a little over 3k but that would be a lot cheaper than buying a sc 3 series and installing it. Dont know how well those 3.8l motors perform though, FI or stock.

Trust me, I spun em off the line and put a hurtin on a 98 GTP in my Z, had almost a car length at 60 and I figure my Z is a mid 13 sec car.
