Re: new engine

why dont you just rebuild your old one?

im not really sure how you blew it though

i know that didnt help, but i know scoggin ****ey sells brand new 3.8 ngines.. not sure if they sell a RWD version though, but it may be cheaper to just find a short block and use your old parts

Re: new engine

its cheaper to buy a used 3.8 than it is to rebuild one. You can use a fwd 3.8 but you just have to swap all of your rwd stuff onto it. Like the oilpan/intakes/oilneck ect

but i picked up a used 03 Buick la saber engine with 3k miles on it for $500

Re: new engine

well i blew it on 81 I had a bad thermostat and it overheated the engine essentially crack the engine block, busting an intake valve, screwing up the water pump, it was a bad day.. but yea me and my dad are looking for a rebuilt engine
