Here's the scenario: my almost ex-wife calls me today, crying and whatnot, bottom line is she wants me to take the engine out of the car she's driving(good engine, bad body) and put it in another car(better body, bad engine).
The two cars in question are a 1989 Buick Park Avenue(good engine, bad body) and a 1993 Buick LeSabre(bad engine, good body). Both are 3.8 V6, auto.
My question is will this work? Are these identical V6 engines? Any differences in the transmissions that will cause it to not bolt up? Any differences in electronics? Starter location? I looked at the '93 today, and a lot of the top end looked different. However, I didn't have both vehicles side by side for comparison. Any ideas and/or opinions are appreciated.
Thank you,
Anthony Nubel
