Hey I've been researching and calling and I've got nothing
for 3800 engines. Does anyone know a good place that has lots in stock? ~Cody_O~ |

Supercharged or naturally aspirated? |

Contact Marcel on the forum, do a quick search for his user name. Send him a PM with the engine that you want. He can get just about any engine from any modern car, for a really reasonable price. Usually a lot cheaper than a wrecking yard and he can include all the related wiring and computer junk in the price. If he does not answer a PM, reply back and I will give him a call with your contact info. (Sorry I won't give out his number without consent) |

Both Romeo. I'll be making one engine out of an L67 (Series
II SC) and L26 (Series III NA) Thanks Capt Fiero! I wouldn't have accepted the contact info anyways without first having his permission. |

I would follow David's advice, as Marcel is a great guy to deal with. On the odd chance he can't aid you, there's a N/A 3800 in Pick-A-Part, row 12. Nothing with forced induction at the moment though (As my friends heard no end of).

There is a forced induction there. A '98 bonneville with
the 3.8 SC in row 13 you might want to check out Romeo ;) http://parts.pickapart.ca/index.php I'm looking for a 2000 or newer engine. If I can't I'll settle for late 90's. |

I went looking for any superchargers and turbochargers, didn't see any. If there was a 3.8SC, it's been stripped out.
