Re: Engine swap

the 2005 Impala still has the VIN-K 3800, so it should be a fairly painless swap. The newer VIN-2 3800 have the drive-by-wire throttle body (no accelerator cable) so they are quite different. You may need to swap some sensors and such, as the Impala was offered with both guages and idiot lights, and there are subtle changes from year to year.
