Ecotec V6 swap with VN-VP? (wanted)

Post by GotFlex »

hey guys seeing as a few of you have messed with the old 3.8 commy conversions thought you may know. i have a 95 commy VS ute (ecotec) can i swap the engine for a vn-vp and will my ecotec parts bolt up as mine has seized the crank
or does anyone have a ecotec engine for sale?

thanks

youll sit on it?? you should turn most of the parts you sit on at the shed into actually seating, that way it would actually get used :lol:

maybe you could donate that lexus v8 for my commy??
