How Hard?
Sunday, June 19, 2005 1:00 PM
Hey everyone I was wondering how hard it wuld be 2 swap a 3.1litre from a 1989 buick limited into a 1992 sunbird gt with a manual? I expect I'll have to make motor mounts and convert the engine to 5 speed, Other than this can anyone shed some light as to other problems that may occur?

Thanks in advanced for your time and input.

the motor is the same one that is used in the cavs if its a 3.1 for sure and not a 3.3.
You wont need to make any custom mounts. What you need to do is find a Jbody that came with a V6 in it stock, take the radiator, wiring harness, ecm, motor mounts, motor mount to engine brackets,, transmission, axels .,,, you get the idea?
