Just curious if anyones heard of,OR did a successful 2.8L swap outa ur Corsy to a 3800SeriesII S/C engine. Ya just gotta figure ...go from 128hp to 240hp(B4 mods),ya think itd run 1/4 in ooohhhh lets say 12.6-14.00??? Our Corsy only weigh out at 2880lbs and the Regal was 3489(YUC) :o) Constructive opinions welcomed. We all like dreaming. Just sos when Im done it dont go Vertical Launch on me...LOL....Oh.

Replying to: 3800gogogadget (Apr 12, 2009 8:00 pm) Seems like a lot of work. Why not buy an early 90's Olds Calais or Pontiac Grand Am with the 3300 V6 and modify that car? The 3300 is a knock off of the 3800. Just a thought.
