Re: SC 3800 installed and running in my 98 z24
Double Z Automtive did the whole swap.
As for cost. It really all depends on how cheap you can get the parts needed for the swap...(engine, accessories (altinator, power steering pump, ICM and coils, TB, etc) tranny, harness, PCM, PCM reprogram, flywheel, clutch, throtle cable, shifter cables, shifter, steel tubing and steel flatbar, intake, plus the very numerious other small parts that are needed. You can also count on about 80 hours to do a good job.

What did you do about the front end? Doesn't it sit to low now, because of the added weight?

I have sprint lowering springs in the front (1.8" drop) The front end only dropped about 1/4 of an inch if that from the extra weight.

Re: SC 3800 installed and running in my 98 z24
whats your car running? do u have any mods like a smaller pulley or anything? My guess is that with the lighter body you should be in the mid 14's completely stock... looks nice though... how come you didn't just get the GM blower and install that?

Re: SC 3800 installed and running in my 98 z24
Mid 14's? I would say mid to low 13's for sure. I ran 13.8 and was only putting down 200hp with a stock clutch with my old engine. I have a 3.4" pulley (stock is 3.8") custom tuned PCM, custom headers, full exhaust, CAI, 5-speed tranny, 9.5lbs aluminum flywheel, Bully stage 4 clutch, MSD DIS-4, MSD wires, 160 degree thermostat, N.O.S. wet nitrous system (using 150hp jets). I am hopeing to get this car into the 11's with slicks.

There is no way you could even run high 14s with a bone stock 3.8. Its just not going to happen. Maybe High 15s

What makes you say you cant run 13's with a stock 3800 S/C in a CAVI?
