motor and tranny fit

Hey guys,can someone tell me what a 3800 motor and tranny from a 93 buick regal would fit into? is there a site to go to for this? My father in law had an accident and totalled the car off. the powertrain is 110% one owner always used synthetic oils,tranny always flushed and filled with new filter every 30,000 miles. car has 120,000miles thanks john

Re: motor and tranny fit

it should fit perfect into any other car with the exact same engine. if it's really a 93 then you don't wanna put it into a car that's any year later since they have different computer systems. this is of course if you're only swapping the engine and transmission w/o the ecm. so the years you want to look for are 91-93
here's a list of cars that had this engine:

buick lesabre
buick park avenue
buick regal
pontiac bonneville
pontiac trans sport
olds 88
olds 98
olds toronado
olds sihouette

i dont' think you'll have issues with the transmission since i don't think these cars came with electronic transmissions until 94.
