destroking a 3.8

[215-fireball]

I am looking for help in finding out if the fwd Buick 3.0v6 crank will work in a 3.8 turbo motor I am building the motor for a 2.0-3.0L race class and fount that the 3.0 was derived from the 3.8 I found a website of a guy who put all the turbo parts onto his 3.0 but I want to stay rwd and if the crank does fit I think it would be easier to start with a turbo 3.8 and just destroke it can anyone help me out with this

No, the FWD flywheel flange is different. The cranks do not interchange. The rods will, but not the crank.
