The blue SS and on the rims and the ground fx look nice! I can't say I've seen that before, but it goes nicely on a black car

I've seen most of your vids and you've done alot of work to it! Turned out real nice too
Sucks that you ran into such problem, my original 3800 went out on me too... it started with a ticking, drove it a few weeks like that. Stupid me went to pass someone, WOT and it just bogged down and died I tried to start it back up and I could hear it trying to turn over but it just wouldn't. When i took the UIM off, there was coolant everywhere so im guessing it hydrocked the motor. i didnt take the oil pan off to check it out from there but I'm sure it was a mess in there too. Didnt feel like messing with it so I just swapped in an L26 3800 from an 05 GP. It was a pretty easy swap and it's still running Great! also thanks to the people on this forum that made it possible with all the great help! I bought the motor with unknown mileage but after removing the heads I noticed the cylinder walls had little to no wear at all and in great shape so I cleaned it up real nice and replaced most of the gaskets, also a little painting here and there lol
