Talking 3.8L install

So rumor has it that the Supercharged 3.8L will fit in the Beretta. Will it fit in a 95 Z-26? If so what does the install require? I am really interested in this as I have a Buick donor vehicle that got rear ended. Any info on a succesful install will be greatly appreciated, Thanks everybody.

Re: 3.8L install

Unless you have your heart set on it, pass. It is a very involved process that will cost more than the resulting car is worth. If the donor car is a 96-newer with OBD-II diagnostics, it will be even more difficult due to the incompatability of all the sensors with your car's hybrid OBD-I diagnostics.

Re: 3.8L install

I have a suggestion... this swap has been done in 82-96 A-bodies (Century, Ciera) by a fellow by the name of Dave Buckshaw.... he did this with an 83 Century T-type 4-door sedan, and the resulting car is NASTY.... I have no idea how to get in touch with him, but you might 411 him on the net...

get ahold of rolngtz on motortopia, he has done it successfully, his beretta runs perfect with the 3800 SC motor... if you can't find him right away look for my profile unauthorized link removed by Moderator he is one of my friends look for a white beretta...
