Mine has to be one of the first with this swap. It was built by ACE in winter of 97/98 with a 97 Bonneville powerplant. About 40k miles on swap so far, and running strong!

Good top hear BanditBalz. Finally taking to plunge? Will you swapping it into your silver GT or another victim?
The 3800 s/c will be going into the silver GT. Unfortunately, my 2.8L is bulletproof. I plan on swapping a L67 onto a spare cradle in the back of my garage. That way I can take my time, do the research and build it up right. Still looking for the right low mileage engine. Almost bought one a month ago but the mileage was too high for my needs.
Eithor way, time is on my side for this swap!
------------------ 5 car lengths in front of you and still pulling...
I have one as a daily driver and have built three others for people. In process of prepping another right now, all series II. Over 20,000km and still going on mine. Dan

And one more. Many thanks to all the prolific posters on the forum. I've always been more of a reader than a writer and there is a ton of useful info on this forum. Takes a lot of the "error" out of the trial and error part of the swap. Doug
