l36 to l67?
 

alright guys so i decided i needed something to putz with on my monte...so i decided to do a top swap and make the ss worth the badge more....i found a pretty good kit if any of you have used it, heard about it..anything let me know what you think of it or any ideas and/or recommendations thanks!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=46098

they sell a install kit with everything else except boost bypass valve, injector plugs, MAP, and PCM reprogramming for $970

Thats almost double what you'd pay if you sourced the parts yourself. I definitely like Morad, he's been in the 3800 parts business for a long time- but like any other top swap 'kit', you pay to have them source all the parts for you.

yeah im also looking into this, logicaly its cheaper but if u source the parts for yourself you need to look out for warp and and all that.

tkat there is another top swap kit like humpin mention on www.milzymotorsports.com

maybe u will find some other parts there as well

Go to RegalGS.org and sign up. PM user "Murphinator"- he sells COMPLETE top swaps for $400. A bunch of guys have his top swap kit installed with no complaints.

400 dollars sounds to good to be true

It's not haha.

Granted you will need gaskets and fluids and everything still. Plus a PCM to work for it.

what does his kit include then? head up?
thanks for all of the help guys

Im tired, this amuses me. And sourcing everything is a a pain, this is all in one, and all in one shipping price.

This is true even with the heads from a kit though- I'd still have them checked before you stick them on.

Spending a couple hours on the various forums isn't worth saving $400+?

All it takes is a little research to find exactly what parts you need, then a little more research and common sense to find out what problem areas to look for. Heck, there are a lot of FS threads on clubgp that include the bulk of the parts for far cheaper than the vendors, so you wouldn't have to hardly source anything else.

Thats true I guess, not all the time will you get it all in great condition though. Im sourcing all of it and its still a pain haha.
