I have a 2002 Monte Carlo ss


and was wondering will a 2000 3800 out a gran p. Fit in it

 

My engine locked up when put new heads on it now I found a 2000 motor with 4700 miles on it so I need to know will it fit in my 2002 Monte ss

 

Yes it will fit , because it's the same 2000 /2005 ..

 

Thanks very much man !!! will pull it out this week

 

Yep same engine should drop right in

 

minds well drop in the good aluminum gaskets in while your at it just so ya don't have to open it back up later

 

So you have a 2000 Grand Prix motor with only 4700 miles, hell pull the tranny too....Winning!!!!!!!!!!

 

you know it's funny as hell,my cousin say I can have the tranny too !!! I wasn't planning on taking it but it do make since, I will just pull the whole damm thing out & put it on the side for just-n-cast, thanks for the tip man !!!!!! His son wreaked it hitting a dear & it just sat with a top cover on it ever since, when it ran it where like a caddy.... That's how quite it was !!!

 

If the motor sat a while, check EVERY rubber hose. Those like to deteriorate without having fluids running through them.

Also you'll be swapping every fluid anyway, but just make sure you get them all.

 

If it sat for for a really long time I would change everything, basically strip it down to the bare motor and change everything over from your current motor. Also you may want to make sure it will start and run first before you pull it. Maybe even get some fogging oil and spray it in the cylinders. I'm basing this on it sitting for like 10 years in the elements, never being touched at all.
