Been looking for every and to be frank im fairly pissed off. It's very hard to find performance parts for a 96. I pretty much just need a cam, found headers pushrod, rockers, springs. But I can't find a site that sells cams for 96's so I can stop with the upgrades and let my wallet recover. Can anyone hook me up with a site.

Re: Websites

i seriously doubt any "one" site is gonna be specific to 96 3.8's.

if u find one for 93's be sure to let me know!

3800II engines are pretty much the same, only thing you gotta look out for is the gtp heads are different. Abbott sells a a cam for the 93 3.4 also.

Re: Websites

The problem I run into is that the 93-95 are 3.4L. Then every site I have went on including abbott and ZZP completely skips the 96-97 years. Then continues with 98-02. Now will the slight change in the engine from the 96-97 to 98-02 make a difference in buying a cam?

The 3800 II is the 3800 II is the 3800 II.

The blocks are the same, the pistons and rods can vary but are all enterchangable... as are the cams.

I have no clue why 1998 3.8 SII cam wouldn't work in a 1996 3.8 SII motor.

Any engine part between an L36, L67, and L32 (the 3800) will work interchangeably, for the exception of SC heads from a GTP or whatnot. The only difference between a 96 3.8l through 2002 3.8l Fbody is the fly-by-wire assembly. Cams, timing chains, pushrods, etc are for the most part interchangeable.

It's the "Series III" heads that won't swap - they have the injector bosses in the head (not intake like our cars). I have L32 rods with Diamond pistons, L67 heads, L36 intakes, block, and crank. My car is such a mut. ;)

3800 SII is a 3800 SII is a 3800 SII ... unless it's a SIII :p ;)

Make sure to keep us posted on your build! Love watching hard work come together! :D
