Nice find JeffP!

Thank you !!! as you can see it's interior is in excellent shape for a 140k mile car



I got this what looks like a rebuilt 3.8 for 700.00 and it passes any test like compression, vacuum, cooling easily. odd though it makes around 100psi oil pressure.

this is how it came out of a wrecked 96 firebird

If it's rebuilt they could have shimmed the pressure bypass spring maybe.

This is a most excellent build,looking forward to more pics and descriptions.

i have a 2000 Camaro t-tops, manual trans, v6. got this car in fl so it's rust free, it is banged up a bit, well quite a bit. But the price was right. i just recently acquired a l67 from a 00 regal gs. this was a running motor when i pulled it, it does have a pile of miles on it, but once again the price was right. i plan to have it rebuilt. i'm very curious about how i can make this build as painless as possible. i'm really loving your project and the progress you've made. i am fortunate to have access to this Regal still. i already pulled all the wiring from the engine compartment the ECM, just about everything. i do have a couple questions for you... was your car a throttle by wire or did you have a cable system, if you had the opportunity what would you get from the vehicle you donor-ed the motor from, and what kind of advice could you give me based on problems you've come acrossed during your build??? I think it's great that there aren't many people doing this. we will be in a class of our own, we should start a car club l67 swapped f-bodies. what do you guys think?

My car started out as a cable TB. I really don't know what it would take to convert it from DBW. I would take the entire engine with accessories and coils and stuff.

My real how to thread is here- How to: M90 your 4th gen - FirebirdV6.com/CamaroV6.com Message Board

I havn't really updated anything here recently. Car ran a 12.92 this fall with a 1.85 60ft. I have a best of 1.75 from earlier in the summer so if I can pull a 1.75 again and knock down one more pulley 12.70's should be doable.

Would you happen to have any in-progress pics of the supercharger mods? I'm going to be tackling a similar project, but with a GenV going into an S10. Any ideas of what I'm getting into would help.
