        L26 would be newer so I would go with that to cam and boost. Just need to swap over your other parts like pan,intakes and other parts.

            Anything is possible.

            But I have yet to see anybody transfer the 3.6 from the CTS/Camaro into the F-body. There's a lot of integral wiring and security stuff to deal with on top of hashing out the direct injection supply.

              I would say, impractical at best.

                And isn't the 3.6 a VVT? And Direct injected... possible it may be but it's stupid..

                  Not a very easy swap for the above reasons,plus the DOHC engine would probably be to wide to fit anyway.

                  Why not get a 5.3L or 6.0L truck engine and go LS?
