3.8 parts interchange question

[montess408]

hey i am looking at a regal that has a 3.8 2bbl . and i was wondering if they had the same internals as the turbo version ?(rod, crank , piston's )
the reason i am asking is i would like to put on some headers along with a edelbrock intake and 4bbl and get a 100-150 shot of nitrous

or i was thinking of geting a supercharger off a newer 3800 car along with the heads and ecu and go that way if i can get it a good price will the newer heads bolt up to the older blocks ?

i am just lookng to put a little bit more power in the motor if i get the car with out puting a bunch of money in to it

thanks !

What year Regal? Depending on year some of the parts are the same. None of the parts from a 3800 will fit. It's a completely different motor.

Except the rod bearings:tongue:
