I did a Seris I L67 -> Series II L67, Wasnt a hard swap, but it was neither a walk in the park. I did go with the riviera it had around 140,000 on the car but the engine was a replacement under buick warranty so it has relatively low miles on it, and the owner also got all the work done at buick on scheduled maintence. But I know my transmission in the bonneville has between 70-80k miles on it, and I cant imagine the engine being far from that so Im good to go, I need to actually stop in at a buick dealership to get the print out of service record to be sure though.

And too all my knowledge this is the first Series I L67 -> Series II L67 swap done in a bonneville, and if there was another it would have been nice to know that earlier =)
