What would happen if....?
Ok, so my friend and I this sumer are taking a 3800 series I NA outta a totaled (from the rear) Bonne and creating a rail buggy (yes...by putting a front wheel drive engine/trans in the back). So these engines are fast hulling around a 1 ton car, now if we take away half of that...... We have already figured a way to lock up the steering when we dont want it 4w steering (yes a very manuverable buggy). This will be sweet and ill keep you updated...this things gonna be fast and powerful...[/i]

It would be cool, but it would be easier to use an older engine with a carberator. Personally I would save a 3800 type engine for a hot rod or something.

Good luck. Didn't you say your dad had a 3800 with 310,000 miles?? In your family you probably have the highest and lowest mileage 3800s of their time!
