Re: 3800 s2 fwd to rwd
The Series II 3800 engines interchange well as they are the same basic long block but thats where the similarities end. You will pretty much have to swap everything from your Camaro engine over. The oil pans are different from the fwd to rwd versions, as are the accessory brackets, engine mounts, flexplate/flywheel, and depending on year the balancer is different but shouldnt pose any problems. The upper and lower intake will also have to be swapped.

Yep. Put an L67 in mine. I swapped the oil pan, oil pickup tube if I remember right, flywheel, oil filter adapter, AC pump, PS pump, all the assorted brackets to attach the trans, starter, intake stuff and wiring. The alternator and assorted brackets will not need to be changed. They are the same.
