Re: 3800 info

It's been attempted by a few, but none were totally successful, if I remember back. Lots of fab work to get it to fit right for less power than a V8. You can now get the same or more power by doing the hybrid swap. 3800 just isn't worth it now-a-days.

Edit: I think this guy was the one who made it the furthest, he has a bunch of posts about it, look through the threads he started. https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/member.php?u=8737
