Not sure what you are trying to do.

In 96 the S2 L67 equipped Bonnevilles had a 4T60 trans. In 97 the L67 had a 4T65.

Yes it'* possible.

You'd have a few hurdles to overcome. Like remapping some of the various instruments etc. Some wire moves at the firewall. With FSM'* for both you could definately make it happen.

Lemme see if I get this right.
You have a 93 car, but need an engine, but the engine you have is a newer Series II correct?
You can pretty much swap any 95 to 2005(ish) Series II engine in any 95-2005 body. It'* a matter of swapping all needed sensors.

As far as going from Series II platform to a Series 1 platform, not sure.

i can get you diagrams from any FSM from 82-06...

i think the absolute easiest route would be to grab a 95 (or maybe 96-97?) L36 PCM, and just bolt up and go...

You sure it wasn't a 4T60E-HD? I know they had those but with special parts to where you couldn't just swap the diff from the 4T60E-HD to the 4T60E. I know for a fact this was the case for the Riviera for that year.

I recommend that you DO NOT bolt a 4T60E to an L67. I had that option with my L67 swap in my 95 Regal and I opted to get a 4T65E. There have been numerous reports of stretched chains in 4T60E'* bolted to L67'*. The transmission cannot handle the power very well due to that stretched chain. You might get a few thousand miles out of it, but I'd be surprised.

My personal plan of action was to get a 4T65E from a 3100 powered car and bolt the HD differential to it, which will by next week will give it 3.29 gears. Easier on the transmission, and more power to the wheels.
