Any Top swap instructions?
I'm debating if I should top swap my 02 3800 ss or do the zzp turbo, nut from what I'm reading top swap is a lot cheaper. What I need is what needs to be swapped and where is the best place to search for parts I'm assuming junk yards? Like car-parts.com or would zz have it
Thanks

For top swap instructions- all you really need to do is follow a normal repair manual for these cars/engines. Tear the top end of the engine down to the block, and put it back together in reverse order using the new parts. Then you'll just have to swap balancers, and add the new pulleys.

Best bet is to look around on the forums, they are sold all the time on clubgp. Heck, I even found a kit in the classifieds on this forum:

If you absolutely need a kit ASAP and don't have time to look for parts on your own (and don't mind paying a lot more)- then you can get a kit from wbs:
