3800 to LT1 swap Has anyone done one of these? I recently had a donor car dropped in my lap and since my wife wants a V8 I figured I'd try to swap one into her car.
A few things I'm wondering are would the driveshaft from the 3800 fit on a T-56? Or would the driveshaft from a 4l60 (or whatever the auto trannie was) fit on a T-56 or would I have to buy a new driveshaft?
Anything else I would need to swap other than the diff, computer, etc?

Do a search might try V6 to LT1
Dont use that v6 driveshaft, its a 2 peice, the 4L60 is the same as the T-56 driveshaft, computer, harness, not sure if the V6 motor mounts will work, exhaust, assume a radiator. That V6 rear will work, its the same as the V8 rear as far as I know

non posi though, and lower gears than the V8. i think 3.04 or 3.06 or whatever.
