So Macho how are you going to pull it off?

Do we have to get engines off a Bonneville or will any l67 Engine/tranny work.

Will a 96-99 SSEI bolt right in?

How does this whole process work?

any L67 will work....you will need certain things like brackets from a H body....

you will need trans, engine, wire harness, PCM to make every thing work

i want to get a whole L67 setup(engine, tranny, pcm, wiring harness) from anything then swap it over. an ssei would be the easiest cuz everything is bolt in. but other models can be done. its basically a normal engine and trans replacement, but theres more wiring to do. im no genious on this. id go to L67swap.com. i know someone on the club just did it.

Its mostly GP guys it looks like.

Does 96 have a PCM?

I noticed on intense they sell them for 97 and higher.

So should I look for a 97-99 to make the process easier?

Edited... read clubgp post. Sounds like you cooked your motor.... Your temp gauge was probably spinning by the time you got home.
