Default Hi from another newbie

Been surfing this forum for some time so I thought I would join and ask some questions. Did a motor swap on my Porsche in 95,cue moans from porschophiles LOL. Too bad for them as they cant beat this 3800 turbo from Hadies.

Sorry to hear you lost your work.
Ya if there is a longer period of no activity, you can get logged off.
It is best before you hit post to highlight it all, and copy it, (control- c) and then you can re paste it with (control -v) and carry on.
Since this is the welcome section, & you have technical questions, may I recommend that you create a new thread under General Gm Chat.

Did the swap in 1995 in a friends garage.Used a 88 3800 from a lesabre, 1st engine labeled 3800 right on the intake.It was too slow so I put on A turbo from A grand national and an FMU from Kenny Bell.It ran like a scalded dog.In 2000 I started a resto on the car.Found A 1994 pontiac SSEI in the J-yard, and had A new flywheel made because the ssei motor had an 8 bolt flexplate vs the 6 bolt on the original.Then I got side tracted till last year. Everything I have read says I cant get new main bolts 4 the 94 SC motor & the heads suck. I had hoped that I could put series II heads on the series I motor, but the thread I was following hasent posted sence 2007.My main question is can I use my expensive adaptor flywheel from the 94 on a series II or III motor as they are both 8 bolt? Already had this post saved so now I will start a new thread

350? An L67 Series 2, is 250 HP stock. Add a few mods and you are pushing 350hp. All the while consuming less fuel than a carb'd 350.
