1. Where can i find a new 3.8l engine and how much would they cost? im guessing roughly about 2-3 grand for a new engine?
Either at a salvage yard or try EBay for used, rebuilt and low mileage engines. Ed Morad has a parts store and he specialized in L36 and L67 engines. Also, GMpartsdirect.com has new crate engines but expensive.

Yes and no. It allows you to install extra gauges like oil pressure, KR sensor, 02 sensor, etc.

There are lots of mods for the L67 if you have a GS model supercharged SII 3800 engine. Try 3800performance.com, zzperformance.com and pfyc.com.

U-bend delete, hi-flow CAT, supercharger pulley, reprogrammed PCM module to start. It depends on how much you want to spend and what performance level you are looking for.

And welcome to AF.
