3800 series III in a 93 lesabre

Hi, I recently blew the engine on my 1993 lesabre

I was wondering if I would have any problems swapping a series III 3800 into it, as I can get one for a very good deal.

Thx

Not sure about the fit but, if you can get a good deal on a 3.8 III, buy it and figure out what to do with it later. This is the last year for that motor and it's GM's flagship power plant.
